Alma 10:14

now it was those men who sought to destroy them,

who were lawyers, who were hired or appointed by the people

to administer the law at their times of trials,

or at the trials of the crimes of the people before the judges.

Alma 11:1

now it was in the law of Mosiah

that every man who was a judge of the law,

or those who were appointed to be judges,

should receive wages according to the time

which they labored to judge those

who were brought before them to be judged.

Alma 11:20

Now, it was for the sole purpose to get gain,

because they received their wages according to their employ,

therefore, they did stir up the people to riotings,

and all manner of disturbances and wickedness,

that they might have more employ,

that they might get money according to the suits

which were brought before them;

therefore they did stir up the people against Alma and Amulek.
