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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In Drewes v. Miller et al., La. App., 25 So.2d 820 , 823, we said: " 'The law relating to the right of an owner of a damaged vehicle to recover damages for loss of its use is well settled. * * *' "In Tornabene v. Rau [La. App.], 34 So.2d 655 , we were presented with a claim of a taxicab operator who was deprived of its use while it was undergoing repairs. He operated the cab himself in the day time and rented it to another driver at night. We allowed recovery for the loss of rent as well as for the loss which he sustained because he could not himself operate it during the day. See also Adam v. English, La. App., 21 So.2d 633 . Plaintiff should have been allowed recovery on this item of damage.”
