(Judge Diane Hathaway defeated Chief Justice Cliff Taylor) YEAH!

Bad as he was, Taylor wasn't the worst member of a court that a University of Chicago study recently ranked as the nation's worst. That distinction belongs to Justice Robert Young.

Who is Justice Young? He's the former chief counsel to the Auto Club of Michigan. When it isn't sending out the occasional Triptik, the Auto Club is an insurance company. Lansing trial attorney David Mittleman points out that Young has ruled in favor of insurance companies 80 percent of the time since he joined the court in 1999.
