What if a lawyer falsifies evidence? Lawyers who forge evidence will be punished accordingly. Article 306 of the Criminal Law stipulates that in criminal proceedings, defenders and agents ad litem who destroy or falsify evidence, help the parties to destroy or falsify evidence, threaten or induce witnesses to change their testimony of facts or commit perjury shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention; If the circumstances are serious, they shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than seven years. The charge of this provision is "lawyer perjury".
