No.

Your fallacy would apply to something like

80 percent of Americans believe that …

But not to

Judges from all over the world came to the conclusion …

The whole thing this fallacy is trying to explain is that you should ask the experts, not the general population.

I have absolutely no idea what aileen cannon has to to with the fallacy you mentioned. Maybe you posted your reply to the wrong thread.

Did anyone claim that all judges are correct? No. You’re strawmanning the issue. Going from one incorrect fallacy to another.

And who do YOU think should best be qualified to determine whether a law is broken or not…except a judge? Or the consensus of judges?
