As members of the bar association — the state entity that grants attorneys their license to practice law — lawyers have a professional ethics obligation “not to abuse legal procedure” by filing “frivolous” claims. Rule 3.1 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, some version of which applies in all states, forbids a lawyer from bringing a claim or argument “unless there is a basis in law and fact for doing so that is not frivolous.”
The bar requires lawyers to “inform themselves about the facts of their clients’ cases and the applicable law” and “determine that they can make good faith arguments” supporting their clients’ positions.

So it's not just lying to the court it's also bringing a frivolous suit
Who knew
What good are laws when your party and their operatives routinely use the law for political corruption.
Huh?
