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.

  1. “First, La.R.S. 14:62.3: 14A. Unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling is the intentional entry by a person without adthorization into any inhabited dwelling or other structure belonging to another and used in whole or in part as a home or place of abode by a person. Second, La.R.S. 14:27: A. Any person who, having a specific intent to commit a crime, does or omits an ■ act for the purpose of and tending directly toward the accomplishing of his object is guilty of an attempt to commit the offense intended; and it shall be immaterial whether, under the circumstances, he would have actually accomplished his purpose.”
