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

  1. “It is in the context of determining whether an underinsured situation exists that “passengers” are referred to in LSA-R.S. 22:1406 D(2)(b). LSA-R.S. 22:1406 D(2)(b) does not purport to determine the class of persons for whom UM coverage must be provided once an underinsured situation is determined to exist. For purposes of determining how much coverage is required and for whom such coverage is required, LSA-R.S. 22:1406 D(2)(b) states, “For purposes of this coverage the term uninsured motor vehicle shall, subject to the terms and conditions of such coverage,” referring back to the general UM provisions found in LSA-R.S. 22:1406 D(l)(a)(i) which require UM protection only for “insureds.””
