2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The juror is not impartial, whatever the cause of his partiality.

1 later decision quote this exact passage“Counsel's proposed inquiry was intended to show that [the witness's] testimony was biased or that he had an interest in his asserted version of the facts, and under this provision [La.R.S. 15:492] the trial court should have allowed cross-examination on the subject of his potential civil liability.”
