Government lawyers (the ones actually doing the day to day case work) aren't paid that much - certainly nothing like their equivalents in the private sector. The fact that legal aid lawyers like I used to be have been screwed is irrelevant. And like all civil servants they are under pressure to produce more with fewer resources. So sometimes people make mistakes. Always have, always will. It's hardly a question of 'treating the courts as their own personal fiefdoms', whatever that comment is based on.
