There is a myth perpetrated by many people in the legal and divorce industries that the court system is just. Here is an
article on NOLO which would lead one to believe that lying in court has negative consequences. It is just not so. Even lawyers believe it is
common and call family court
a court of lies. My case certainly support this. And one only need to look at the statistics. It is exceedingly rare that perjury is prosecuted in family and, at least in Minnesota, a lawyer has never been disciplined for committing fraud upon the court in family court despite it being considered so serious it has no statue of limitations.
Here is the reality:
- Perjury by litigants is common.
- Fraud by litigants and lawyers is common.
- Rarely if ever are either of the above prosecuted.
- Crime has become so endemic in family court that judges rarely hold it against you. Indeed, they often openly reward it as they did in my case.
- In short - crime pays in family court. It is at best naive and more often disingenuous to state otherwise.
