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 37 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““A. Armed robbery is the taking of anything of value belonging to another from the person of another or that is in the immediate control of another, by use of force or intimidation, while armed with a dangerous weapon.””
    3 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “A. Armed robbery is the theft of anything of value ... while armed with a dangerous weapon. " (Emphasis added.) The defendant's argument is that the toy pellet gun he had is not an inherently dangerous weapon and that in the manner it was used could cause harm to no one. La.R.S. 14:2(3) defines dangerous weapon to include, "gas, liquid or other substance or instrumentality, which, in the manner used, is calculated or likely to produce death or great bodily harm.”
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  3. “The use of an inherently harmless object in a manner that creates circumstances likely to produce death or great bodily harm results in the inherently harmless object being a dangerous weapon within the provisions of LA. R.S. 14:2(3) and 14:64.”
