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

  1. “The "credible witness" called for in LSA-C.C. art. 2277, may be the one seeking to have the debt recognized. See Feazel v. Feazel, 471 So.2d 851 (La.App. 2nd Cir.1985). The "corroborating circumstances" need not establish every element of the obligation. Feazel v. Feazel, supra . The trial court's assessment of credibility and corroboration are entitled to great weight. Samuels v. Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., 342 So.2d 661 (La.1977); Floor-N-Wall Distributors, Inc. v. Hirts, 428 So.2d 1103 (La.App. 1st Cir.1983).”
