FALSEHOOD. A willful act or declaration contrary to truth. It is committed
either by the willful act of the party, or by dissimulation, or by words. It
is willful, for example, when the owner of a thing sells it twice, by
different contracts to different individuals, unknown to them; for in this
the seller must willfully declare the thing is his own, when he knows that it

is not so. It is committed by dissimulation when a creditor, having an
understanding with his former debtor, sells the land of the latter, although
he has been paid the debt which was due to him.
2. Falsehood by word is committed when a witness swears to what he
knows not to be true. Falsehood is usually attendant on crime. Roscoe, Cr.
Ev. 362.
3. A slander must be false to entitle the plaintiff to recover damages.
But whether a libel be true or false the writer or publisher may be indicted

73, s. 6. Vide Dig. 48, 10, 31; Id. 22, 6, 2; Code, 9, 22, 20.
4. It is a general rule, that if a witness testifies falsely as to any
one material fact, the whole of his testimony must be rejected but still the
jury may consider whether the wrong statement be of such character, as to
entitle the witness to be believed in other respects. 5 Shepl. R. 267. See
Lie.
