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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"A judge of any court, trial or appellate, may be recused when he: (1) Is a material witness in the cause; (2) Has been employed or consulted as an attorney in the cause, or has been associated with an attorney during the latter's employment in the cause; (3) At the time of the hearing of any contested issue in the cause, has continued to employ, to represent him personally, the attorney actually handling the cause (not just a member of that attorney's firm), and in this case the employment shall be disclosed to each party in the cause; (4) Has performed a judicial act in the cause in another court; (5) Is the spouse of a party, or of an attorney employed in the cause; or is related to a party, or to the spouse of a party, within the fourth degree; or is related to an attorney employed in the cause; or to the spouse of the attorney, within the second degree; or (6) Is biased, prejudiced, or interested in the cause or its outcome or biased or prejudiced toward or against the parties or the parties' attorneys to such an extent that he would be unable to conduct fair and impartial proceedings." La.C. C.P. Art. 151 (in effect on December 9, 1987).”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“"A party desiring to recuse a judge of a district court shall file a written motion therefor assigning the ground for recusation. This motion shall be filed prior to trial or hearing unless the party discovers the facts constituting the ground for recusation thereafter, in which event it shall be filed immediately after these facts are discovered, but prior to judgment. If a valid ground for recusation is set forth in the motion, the judge shall either recuse himself, or refer the motion to another judge or a judge ad hoc, as provided in Articles 155 and 156, for a hearing."”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“These are the sole and exclusive grounds for recusation of a judge in a civil matter. Bias, prejudice, and impartiality are not statutory grounds for recusation in a civil case. Rollo v. Dison, 402 So.2d 122 (La. App. 2nd Cir.1981), writ denied, 404 So.2d 265 (La.1981). There must be a statutory ground for recusing a judge. Shreveport Long Leaf Lumber Co. v. Jones, 188 La. 519 , 177 So. 593 (1937); State v. Chantlain, 42 La.Ann. 718 , 7 So. 669 (1890). LSA-C.C.P. Art. 154 provides the procedure for recusation, as follows:”
