  1. If he lies in court when asked directly by a judge, yes. A lawyer can lose his license and be disbarred. But a lawyer is allowed to lie to defend or protect a client. For example there’s a clip of Trump’s lawyers in court being asked repeatedly “were there any poll watchers in the room,’ and the lawyers sidestepped the question saying they couldn’t see, their view was bad, their view was blocked. The judge got very direct and demanded a yes or no answer, it was “Yes,” and the judge dismissed the case. Edit: To be clear, before the case started, they can lie, they can make false statements, but cannot lie, commit perjury themselves when asked questions by a judge. The lawsuit mentioned asserted that poll watchers were not allowed to be in the room as the poll workers and were seeking a mistrial. They can lie to bring the lawsuit, they can lie to people or the press, but cannot lie to a judge when asked a question in court.
