The question uses the incorrect terminology.

A "count of fraud" is a charge against the defendant -- either a criminal charge or a claim in a civil lawsuit -- and there would be one "count" for each act of fraud.

I think you're trying to ask -- how many times can an attorney or party to the case lie to the court before the court rules against them -- and there is no single answer. it depends on the nature of the lie -- and how much can be proven, as opposed to speculation.

The court takes lies very seriously -- and an attorney who is caught doing so finds themselves rapidly and severely punished by the court..... and then they get punished by the bar association.
