Subornation of perjury is a serious crime and an offence under Section 131 of the Criminal Code of Canada. It involves the intentional instigation, counselling, or procurement of a false oath to be taken by another person in court. In other words, it is the deliberate, criminal action of convincing someone to commit perjury — falsely testify or make false statements while under oath in a court of law.<\/p>\n
One example of subornation of perjury is when a witness is persuaded by a party involved in a case to give false testimony. Another example would be if someone were to provide false documentation or falsify evidence in order to influence the outcome of a court procedure. <\/p>\n
The consequences of subornation of perjury can be severe if found guilty by a court of law, as it is considered a very serious offence. Depending on the severity of the case, a person can face jail time, large fines, and even the possibility of having their criminal record tarnished for a number of years.<\/p>\n
The best way to prevent perjury and subornation of perjury is to ensure that you are well versed in all legal matters that will come up in your case and that you are honest in all of your testimony. A lawyer should also be consulted before any false statements or information is given. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
