Sure, why not? Lots of lawyers I know are the devil incarnate so it may just level the playing field a bit.

There have historically been lawyer priests, not only in canon law, but in the workaday world of law. There are teaching nuns and nursing nuns, I would assume any practicing person of any profession which requires licensing would have to pass state tests, but it would all be to the benefit, ultimately, to the Church.

NO. THEY SHOULD NOT PRACTICE LAW BUT THEY CAN LEARN LAW. THERE SHOULD BE SELF BUILT IN STABILISERS IN ALL SYSTEMS IN THE WORLD. PRIESTS AND NUNS CAN ASSIST LAWYERS AND JUDGES TO INTERPRET LAW ACCORDING TO CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SENTENCED TO DEATH WRONGLY DUE TO DISTORTED OR INTELLIGENTLY CALCULATED EVIDENCE. IMAGINE A PRIEST OR NUN SENTENCING SOMEONE TO DEATH AND TRICKLING EVIDENCE LATER PROVES THAT THE DEAD PERSON WAS CONVICTED WRONGLY.

I don't think they would, because they would need to dedicate a lot of time to study, but it it were used to benefit the Catholic Church, they might be allowed to.
