Answer 5

This is a very difficult thing to accomplish. However, with that said, judges are trained, spend many years sitting in front of people and learning to look into how a person conducts his/herself and seek out the liars and deceivers. If a person can't keep the story straight, continually can't look the judge in the eyes, has body language which speaks to the lie, a judge can make a conclusion of the truthfullness of the statements. Now, judges are only human, and if you get a young one, well, mistakes are bound to occur. Also, judges are bound by facts and evidence. If the person who is lying has some type of documentation that seems to back up the statements judges are bound to be fooled. It is just a fact of life.

Now, the person who stated that "isn't everyone in court under a oath to tell the truth?", is foolish if she actually believes everybody who goes into court honors that oath. It is usually not in their best interest to tell the truth, and these days too many individuals care little for honor and truth. If it suits their needs to lie, and they are liars, how will an oath affect their lying ways? No, many people these days simply have no honor and will lie in the face of an oath if it suits their needs. Sad but true and I think you would agree with me or you wouldn't have asked this question.

You are much more pragmatic about the sad state of affairs these days with so many lacking any ability to be honorable. You are aware that many people lie under oath. While you and I would not do so and while many others would not as well, just as many or more would. Sad but true. I wish we could count on the honor of others but that is a child's dream, a child's optimistic view of the world.

What you need to do is find evidence to prove the person is a liar. If you have physical evidence, like an e-mail, or other correspondance with the defendant admitting to things they will not admitt to in court, you can demonstrate the person's tendency to lie. Don't produce the evidence until the defendant lies under oath. You see, it doesn't even have to be about the court case. If it is a civil case you are allowed to show the court evidence demonstrating the defendent lies on a regular basis. If you can even demonstrate one lie the defendand told the judge will be much less likely to believe anything else the defendant or the accuser says. It goes both ways. So, if you have anything which you can get the person you are attempting to show as a liar, to say a lie and then have physical proof it is a lie, you will danage that person's credibility with the judge.

Lets say you have an e-mail the person wrote stating s/he did something s/he wouldn't have admitted to anybody easily, something s/he wishes kept secret, like cheating on taxes, cheating on a spouse, or admitting to you a lie to somebody else, or stating s/he did something dishonorable. By presenting this evidence to the judge it damages that person's credability with the judge. It doesn't even have to be about the case.

Physical evidence is the best evidence. Wittnesses are the next best evidence. If you can get an individual to come in and state the defendant did something to that person which was dishonorable, which shows against the person's charactor, that damages the person's credability too. Especially if that person had denied behaving in the manner previously in written response or orally to the judge durring the hearng. Now, in a criminal case all evidence has to be presented prior to the hearing, and the opposition has the right to interrogate or question the evidence and the wittness. In a civil case, depending on the laws of your state, you can present evidence during the course of the hearng without having shown it prior to the hearing, so you have a chance or opportunity to surprise and take off guard your advesary. You have to pllan this carefully to take full advantage of it.

It may come down to the judge using his/her years of experiance on the bench to make a determination of who is being the most honest and who is not. Once the judge decides one side is more believable than the other, the case is won by the one who is perceived as most believable. So if you are up against a skilled liar and minipulator you are in trouble. A skilled liar and minipulator can minipulate truth so skillfully s/he can come out looking honest while you look dishonest. Especially if you are nervous. Often nervousness is perceived by judges as dishonesty, as somebody having something to hide. They try to take into account that people can get scared and nervous in courst and still be a very honest person, but I have seen most judges tend to perceive nervousness as a guilty conscience. So, if you are a nervous type person you will need to do both of these: Practice what you will say, how you will say it, and have somebody pretend to be a strict and stern judge. It is best to get somebody who you feel a bit or a lot intemendated by. Smile. But serioulsy this can help a lot. The other thing you need to do is tell the judge upfront how scared and nervous you are. That you have never (If this is true) gone to court before and are nervous. However, a skilled liar and minipulator may do this too, just to fool the judge into thinking his/her behavior is due to nerves. So be prepared for that too.

In the end you will need to just hope the judge can see through your opponant. Tell the truth, and tell it with streangth. A lot of times a person who is speaking the truth will have that truth ring true and load in their delivery of that truth.

I am not a judge but I raised eight children. We all know children lie, some more than others. Now, in raising so many children I had to make determinations much like a judge. The only advantage I had over a judge was the fact of how well I know my children. I can tell when they are lying, even the ones who don't lie very often. I am not aways correct in my judgements but I would say I get it right 90% of the time. I am sincerelly sorry for the 10% of the time I don't get it right, but nobody is perfect and the kids know I truly try to be fair with them and work hard to get to the bottom of issues they have with each other.

I don't know what you face right now, but I wish you the best in working through it. Do the best you can do, alow yourself to know you did the best you could do and then allow yourself to accept the judges decision if it goes against you and move on with life. I know this may be a very serious situation, it could be a child custody case or a child support issue, or somebody is trying to take you for something, but just remember all you can do is your best. Doing your best is all you can expect of yourself and others. The judge will be doing his/her best too. The judge really does want to get it right. But s/he is only human too. If the decision is something very painfull for you I suggest you seek counseling and care for yourself, find a way to deal with the outcome so you can find peace and happiness amidst pain. If need be allow yourself to grieve, work through it and you will come out the other side a stronger person.

I truly wish you the best. I hope you are victorious in showing this person for the liar s/he is and having justice in your case. Good luck and happiness always. Have a nice day.
