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.

“C.C.P. Article 2004 is not limited to cases of actual fraud or intentional wrongdoing, but is sufficiently broad to encompass all situations wherein a judgment is rendered through some improper practice or procedure which operates, even innocently, to deprive the party cast in judgment of some legal right, and where the enforcement of the judgment would be unconscionable and inequitable.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“A final judgment obtained by fraud or ill-practices may be annulled. An action to annul a judgment on these grounds must be brought within one (1) year of the discovery by the plaintiff in the nullity action of the fraud and ill-practices.”
