@pete: I suggest you read it again. Dr. Jain was hired by the bar to refute the diagnosis of ADHD. This is not a case of a patient contacting him for a second opinion.

I also suggest you consider the hippocracy of separate legal and medical diagnosis.

Would you then train doctors in law so when they diagnose a mental illness they can also diagnose the higher standard of a “legal” mental illness?

I also think this case falls into the category of using ADHD as an explanation, not an excuse (see Bill’s video on ADHD not an excuse).
