NO!!! because then you will have two lying people. Just put the other person under pressure so that they will crack and tell the turth. You cant lie to long under pressure.

It simply means that the individual had a more concise story than the other person who told the truth. Sometimes when people go to court, they are nervous and cannot focus on what is at hand and the innocent person starts to tumble on words to make the story feasible. If a court date was set for a few months down the road, the person who is guilty comes up with a battle plan for the coming day and the person who is innocent "thinking" that they have this in the bag lets all defenses down and doesn't think about the outcome of what is actually going on and that the guilty party has played a game of wits against you because the guilty party is in fear of being convicted. So, at all cost, the guilty is going to play a "hole card".( in this case, a lie). And if the guilty party feels this incrimination that is bestowed upon him/her, as with any animal, it's going to defend itself. So, in short, the guilty party planned a better line of defense and the innocent didn't plan at all.

Unfortunately, we don't live in a perfect world. People make mistakes.Also, some people will lie,cheat and steal for their own benefit. If you see these imperfections in the world then you can understand they are going to be part of the court system. However if you have to lie to win, then you didn't really win!
So as you believe so shall you do.

i have in no way seen 2 nor 3, yet they make experience. you've were given to be a rather massive egotist to have self belief 2. 4 years in the past (even as i became twelve) i became the perfect party of four. As for 5, i imagine i'm more suitable positive at writing than some, no longer maximum, revealed authors, yet they have written books and that i visit't end something. I see 4 the most.

No! You never want to lie under oath to tell the truth. You could go to jail for this. If the other person lied, there's nothing you can do about it. It is still up to the jury to figure out who is telling the truth. If they decide it's the other person, it's because they had a better lawyer.

Well, you did the right thing, but we all know there are people that can lie very convince-ably. Then there are the lawyers that can make a person telling the truth look like a liar.
Look at OJ, we all know he was lying and he won. It's the shi%s but it happens. Kinda makes you loose faith in the justice system
The truth does not always prevail.
But, if it helps any, you did what was right, for that you can be proud.

If you lie under oath, you risk spending a lot of time in jail. Perjury is considered a very serious crime and you will be put in jail if you lie in court. If you want to accuse someone of perjury, you have to find proof. However, I suspect that you didn't have any at the time of trial or you would have used it. In addition, your attorney should have been able to expose his lie, so obviously you didn't have a very good lawyer.

No. All that you know is that they won by lying. Or that their lying didn't keep them from winning, which isn't necessarily the same thing. If you lied, that doesn't mean that you would win. You could lose anyway. And you could be caught out in your lie, which means jail time.

Well you should have evidence to prove that your side was the truth and theirs was the lie. It's not about who tells the truth and who lies, but who has the best arguments and most evidence to back up their statements.
That reminds me:
If "winners never quit" and "quitters never win," what idiot came up with "quit while you're ahead"?

Yes, this is an absolute truth.
I went through a prolonged expensive Custody Evaluation with my Ex-wife to modify the Child Custody agreement. I told the truth the whole time and she lied the whole time.
The Custody Evaluator sided with her early on. I never took it to trial. The liar wins. My lawyer did not inform me of the ground rules.
