It is a bad law. It is the State giving itself powers in a civil context which citizens do not have in a civil context. This means the State gave itself an unfair advantage to the detriment of its citizens. Violates (on its face and as applied) the 14th amendment of the US Constitution and the Due Process clause of the 5th Amendment.

Sorry, but I can’t see that. The state and federal governments have lots of powers that private citizens don’t have. Governments can award custody of a child (state) or issue a pilot’s license (federal).
Any particular law can be good or bad. Maybe you shouldn’t need a license to go fishing. But those laws aren’t unconstitutional.
