The theory being he or she should be completely free to tell the court the truth, without worry of suit.<br /><br />However, if someone deliberately lies under oath (either in a civil or criminal case), then, of course, he or she can be criminally prosecuted for perjury. But that is extremely rare, and hard to prove.<br /><br />(By the same token, judges and prosecutors enjoy absolute immunity from civil suit for anything they do in their job -- even if they take a bribe! But, of course, they are not immune from criminal prosecution, if that is warranted.)The_Original_Bored_Lawyernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-32083281104585531522015-01-06T18:44:47.735+02:002015-01-06T18:44:47.735+02:00I am so pleased it has all worked out for you and ...I am so pleased it has all worked out for you and MK.

Prince Andrew will most likely have immunity, and will be hard to prove he did anything. <br />Dershowitz wants to fight back, especially at the lawyers representing the young girl. He presumably can show enough safek in the case, that he was not present at any of the locations where the alleged acts are claimed to have taken place. <br /><br />He also pointed out that the Jane Doe has repeated claims about our Prince Andrew, but not about him.

We carefully investigate all of the allegations in our pleadings before presenting them.

He said he would prefer the case be aired in the media rather than in a lawsuit. I assume he will have his day in court to confront his accuser, if the courts in England are like they are in the U.S. So, why would he want his accuser to be speaking to the media? A thought: maybe he's trying to smoke out his accuser, and use public statements the accuser will make to undermine future statements the accuser will make.

Kanefsky's bogus article is slanderous, misandrist, false and deceptive. <br /><br /><br /><br />You and your ORA-bot pals continually spew false and deceptive feminist ideologies, covered with a thin layer of fake "halacha", that only serve to confuse and mislead Jewish women and the Jewish public. <br /><br />Rabbeinu Gershom's "ban of excommunication against any man who divorced his wife" only applied in cases where the Jewish wife was compliant with halacha. The ban was never intended to apply to a Jewish woman who rebelled against the Torah and against her husband (moredes). These limits on the ban are clearly stated in Igros Moshe by Rav Moshe Feinstein ZT"L. <br /><br />In this case MK's wife is clearly a moredes after she's been litigating in non-Jewish courts against her husband for years. But I guess the concept of a moredes simply doesn't exist by the ORA faithful.<br /><br />http://mishpattsedek.com/mtwp/justice-denied/meir-kin-lonna-kin/TruthSeekerJewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-8207378348748731842015-01-05T18:08:01.489+02:002015-01-05T18:08:01.489+02:00Meir Kin is not a very nice guy according to this ...Meir Kin is not a very nice guy according to this article: http://www.jewishjournal.com/opinion/article/israel_meir_kin_is_a_threat_to_all_jewish_women<br /><br />Is there something else we should know?
