With all due respect, I have a bit of different experience here.
Keep in mind that this is a CIVIL case, and there are probably not going to be any officers of the court there. Just private attorneys. As a GENERAL rule, the District Attorney will not get too involved in the proceedings of civil cases. So, for example, if Ariza lied...then what?
Is Floyd THEN going to go to the Clark County DA and report that Ariza lied during a deposition for a defamation case? Unlikely. And even if Floyd did that, will the DA be motivated to prosecute such a (garbage) case? Even more unlikely.
Even in cases where you lied to a federal agent, the penalties for perjury are not that severe. See Martha Stewart, Lil' Kim and Marion Jones.
For a six month sentence in a minimum security camp, Ariza would lie.
I would.
