Lies are permissible under free speech.

Lies have to be proven for a lawyer to receive penalties

Rudy did not contest the false statements. His only defense was that he thought the statements were true when he made them, although he now admits they were false. Then he failed to produce any evidence showing where he got the false information, or why he thought it was true.

Plus, he made inconsistent and contradictory statements in different court hearings.
