Friends,
It is written her,[...If the.. statement was made inspite of {the author knowing} it was false, you are..seek some remedy...].
Well, what if the author does not know that what is in question could be false? And what if the author contends that it is true?
You see, in the past practice here, is the intent of the author been what determines what is civil or not? In other words, for me to seek some remedy, is it a requierment that it is to be shown that;
A. the statement is false?
B. the author knew that it is false?
One can search the archives to see what the past practice has been here in relation to this.
