Perjury

People lie in family law because perjury is not punished. One Marin County deputy DA recently said that in his 25 years on the job, he has never seen perjury (a felony) committed in family court proceedings prosecuted in criminal court. In addition to sanctions, it should be prosecuted as the crime it is.
