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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“An action for the recovery of damages for an offense or quasi offense may be brought in the parish where the wrongful conduct occurred, or in the parish where the damages were sustained.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The medical treatment rendered by the defendant to the plaintiffs' daughter occurred solely in Natchitoches Parish and constitutes the "wrongful conduct" complained of by the plaintiffs. The wrongful conduct and the damage occurred in Natchitoches Parish. The fact that the child's condition may have deteriorated elsewhere or that the child died in Caddo Parish does not render venue proper in that parish.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“the decedent was treated `extensively' in Orleans Parish and the cause of action for wrongful death was partially based upon treatment rendered in that parish.”
