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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Because Article X, § 12(a) grants the Civil Service Commission the exclusive power and authority to hear and decide all removal and disciplinary cases, Louisiana district courts do not have jurisdiction over such employment related disputes as reinstatement, back pay and merit increases asserted by classified civil service employees against the state. See e.g., Goldsby v. State, Dept. of Corrections, 861 So.2d 236, 238 (La.App. 1 Cir. 2003); see also, Barenis v. Gerace, 357 So.2d 892 (La.App. 1 Cir.1978) (holding that the Civil Service Commission has exclusive jurisdiction over the issue of whether a state employee was entitled to a promotion).”
