Lying to the court is at minimum perjury, no? I wonder if the culture at these Immigration offices is such that they are encouraging this behavior or if it’s looked down on?
If you’re an attorney at a prestigious law firm and you’re held in contempt or caught lying, I think this would be career limiting, potentially result in the loss of your license, and look bad on your firm.
Lawyers might have shitty clients though, and that might be the case at these DHS offices. I’m thinking about that one attorney who asked the judge to hold her in contempt. If that’s the case you’d hope the attorney won’t act until they are confident in the facts.
