Amway flaunts the opinion of former Chief Justice Y V Chandra Chud in its petitions all the time. However, it did not cut much ice with the Supreme Court when Amway filed a Special Leave petition against the judgement of Andhra Pradesh High Court.

It is apt to recall here that GoldQuest used to flaunt the opinion of noted advocate Mrs Nalini Chidambaram, wife of Union Minister of Government of India, Mr Chidambaram to claim that their business model is legal. However, after criminal cases were filed, Mrs Nalini Chidamabaram backtracked her opinion.
