Not quite. Would you listen to medical diagnoses by someone with no medical training? How about structural analysis by non-engineers? Stock advice by someone who doesn't know business? Why is the law so different, that the uneducated's opinions trump that of those who have studied it in depth? All too often, people knee-jerk reactions against a legal conclusion without examining the opinion that formed the basis behind it.
Ok genius.. cite the NY consitution that allows for a judge to tell the state who and what to pay people?
