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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"When a trial court has made a considered decree of permanent custody, the party seeking a change bears a heavy burden of proving that the continuation of the present custody is so deleterious to the child as to justify a modification of the custody decree or of proving by clear and convincing evidence that the harm likely to be caused by a change of environment is substantially outweighed by its advantages to the child. Bergeron v. Bergeron, 492 So.2d 1193 (La.1986). However, where no considered decree of custody has been rendered, the `heavy burden' rule set forth in Bergeron does not apply. The test to be applied in such cases is best interest of the child. Milligan v. Milligan, 559 So.2d 6 (La.App. 1st Cir.1990); Stewart v. Stewart, 525 So.2d 218 (La.App. 1st Cir.1988); Meredith v. Meredith, 521 So.2d [793] at 796; Risher v. Risher, 511 So.2d 1220 (La.App. 2nd Cir.1987)." Lindner, supra, at pg. 175 .”
