Lex Mentis - Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire ( May 2006 )
Of course, we know that when plaintiffs in employment lawsuits get up on the witness stand and take the oath, their testimony that follows is always the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Nonetheless, defense attorneys tend to be the cynical sort who sometimes believe that the plaintiff is not being entirely candid. It is rare that a plaintiff will break down on the stand and admit that his or her testimony is but a collection of lies, and prior inconsistent statements to use to impeach a plaintiff are not always available.
