Oh really? Let's have a look, shall we.
Civil case. Again, if you hadn't been so lazy and had actually read the case, you wouldn't have ended up looking like a complete fool.
So now you want to move the goal posts? Even though federal law is clear, your now demand a case where it was used against a prosecutor? Pathetic.
Actually, did you even bother reading section (b) of the statute you cited?
To paraphrase, it says that subsection (a), which imposes the penalty, does not apply to either a party to a judicial proceeding or that party’s counsel, for any “statements, representations, writings or documents submitted by such party or counsel to a judge or magistrate in that proceeding.â€
In other words, it doesn’t apply to this circumstance, by its own terms.
You lose.
