Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Finally, defendants contend that they are insulated from liability because the bill of sale contained `Sold as is.' Considering that the vice in the engine was far more than the kind of minor repairs one might expect in buying a used car but in fact rendered the automobile inoperable, this inclusion of words `Sold as is' does not deprive plaintiff of the fundamental warranty provided by the Civil Code. Nationwide Finance Co. of Gentilly, Inc. v. Jones, 279 So.2d 221 (La.App. 4th Cir. 1973); Juneau v. Bob McKinnon Chevrolet Company, 260 So.2d 919 (La. App. 4th Cir. 1972); McLain v. Cuccia, 259 So.2d 337 (La.App. 4th Cir. 1972)." ( 353 So.2d 407, 409 )”
