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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Fraud exists if it can be shown that material misrepresentations have been made by one party designed to deceive another, ... to cause loss or inconvenience to the other.”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage“Any party by contradictory motion may obtain a change of venue upon proof that he cannot obtain a fair and impartial trial because of the undue influence of an adverse party, prejudice existing in the public mind, or some other sufficient cause. If the motion is granted, the action shall be transferred to a parish wherein no party is domiciled.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“Under La. C.C.P. Art. 122, a change of venue is discretionary with the trial judge and will not be disturbed absent a clear abuse of discretion. Pursuant to this article, the mover has the burden of showing sufficient cause why he is unable to obtain an impartial trial in the court of original venue. Plaintiff's unsupported allegation that he is disliked in Acadia Parish is insufficient to meet that burden. Nor does the fact that ten attorneys refused to take his case suggest that he is disliked or unable to obtain a fair and impartial trial. We find no abuse of the trial judge's discretion in denying plaintiff's motion for change of venue.”
