Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus is a Latin[2] maxim[3] meaning "false in one thing, false in everything".[4] At common law, it is the legal principle that a witness who falsely testifies about one matter is not credible to testify about any matter.[5] While many common law jurisdictions reject categorical application of the rule, the doctrine survives in some American courts.[6]
