As a classroom teacher long before I became a lawyer, I was not concerned with the legal influences on my teaching job. Probably this was because I did not have the occasion to be personally involved as a party litigant in a legal suit affecting my teaching work, either as a plaintiff in a civil suit for damages or as a complainant in a criminal or administrative case. Neither have I experienced being sued civilly, criminally or administratively as a classroom teacher.
