What's your point? Our own Frank Ettin specialized in medical insurance law but he is still considered an authority here.
If I wanted advice on medical insurance in California, I would consult Frank Ettin.
If I want to discuss how the legal system works, Frank, boom boom, and Spats would be fine.
If I want to discuss generalities of use of force law in more depth, I would speak to Massad Ayoob, Andrew Branca, or Marty Hays.
If I needed advice on use of force law in my jurisdiction, I would find out whom Branca and Hayes recommend.
I have had more formal classroom training in use of force law t(and in a few other areas) than most attorneys had in law school. Attorneys have asked
me questions on the subject.
Spats knows a bit about qualified immunity. Boom boom works in constitutional law. Frank has assisted trainers in teaching use of force law.
The best assessment of the QI aspects of the new Colorado law would come from someone who is knowledgeable of Fourth Amendment issues, lawsuits against the police, and how use of force encounters involving sworn officers really take place.
One would not ask an attorney works in family law, public financial reporting law, international tax law, contract disputes, eminent domain and the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment, copyrights in photography, or software licensing about how the new Colorado law may affect law enforcement officers and law enforcement practices.
All Mr. French did was read the bill, saying that he assumed it was law.
Most of us can do that for ourselves.
That's my point.
