Plenty of Perjury??

 I wasn’t planning on writing today, but this is just too good to pass up.

Lawyers often file cases as “verified petitions” where they swear that the information contained is true and correct to the best of their knowledge. Since they are officers of the court, lawyers’ representations do not need to be sworn to before a notary public. It is sufficient to state that you “verify under penalty of perjury that the facts are true and correct.”

Carefully read what Lin Wood said in his latest Georgia suit about the upcoming Senate runoff, filed yesterday:

“Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1746, I declare and verify under plenty of perjury that the facts contained in the foregoing Verified Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief are true and correct.

Dated: December 18, 2020

L. Lin Wood, Jr., Esq.”

Plenty of perjury? Lawyers are having a field day with that today. [Written December 19, 2020]
