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

“are an extension, supplement and legal part of the provisions of article 42.”
8 later decisions quote this exact passage
e.g. Barham v. Richard · 709 So. 2d 366 - Long Leaf Vending, Inc. v. La. Coca-Cola Bottling Co.
“The proliferation of exceptions [to Article 42] mirrors the newly emerging bases of modern venue statutes. These provisions are not based on domicile but on factors such as the following: the convenience of both parties; the relationship between the forum and the cause of action; the reduction of litigation through certainty in the laying of venue; the places where the subject of the action or part thereof is situated; the place where the cause of action arose; the place where the seat of government is located ... With the advent of these important venue grounds, the rationale that the defendant has an inherent or natural right to be sued at his domicile, in the absence of or in addition to positive law, is anachronistic.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage
e.g. 694 So. 2d 387 - Prokop v. Mack Trucks, Inc. · 656 So. 2d 988 - Jordan v. Central Louisiana Elec. Co., Inc.
“[A]n action for the recovery of damages... against joint or solidary obligors may be brought in the parish where the plaintiff is domiciled if the parish of plaintiff's domicile would be a parish of proper venue against any defendant under... [La.Code Civ.P. art.] 76....”
