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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is now well settled that if the work contracted for is within the ‘trade, business [and] occupation’ of defendant, or within the category of operations, it may not be contracted for except under the conditions imposed by Section 6 of the Compensation Act.” (Section 6 of the Act is now incorporated in LSA-R.S. 23:1061.)”
