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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The doctrine of apparent authority was created to protect parties dealing in good faith with corporate officials when the corporation has taken such action or inaction so as to justify a belief that the official has acted with authority. See Lilliedahl & Mitchel v. Avoyelles Trust and Sav., 352 So.2d 781 (La.App. 3rd Cir.1977). The two requirements for imposition of the doctrine are that the principal must make some form of manifestation to an innocent third party and the third party must reasonably rely on the agent's purported authority as a result of the principal's manifestations.”
