Divorce: False Police Reports

 In Texas, filing a false police report is a criminal offense, punishable by law. False police reports can lead to dangerous situations, false arrests, and wastage of law enforcement resources. It is an offense to knowingly furnish or file a false report, and people who are found guilty of such actions can face severe legal consequences.

Texas Penal Code Section 37.08 governs false reports, and it defines the offense as intentionally or knowingly making a false statement to a law enforcement officer relating to an offense or a person that involves or may involve a criminal offense. A person is also guilty of a violation if the false statement includes material information and is given to an on-duty peace officer, correctional facility employee, or law enforcement agency employee who is The report may include false material information that involves or may involve a police investigation, prosecution, or legal proceeding. A person commits this offense if they:


- Knowingly provide false identity information to a peace officer

- Train or participate in sure communication with someone who's expected to submit a fake report

- Insists on submitting a fake report or provide false evidence that may determine an increase of such charge.


Further, Section 37.09 of the Texas Penal Code punishes people who cause another person to submit a fake report with the intention to deceive or cause a false investigation—this provision applies where one person makes the report and another person caused the offender to make the report.


If you file a false police report, and the false information contained in the report is discovered, it can cause you more harm than good. The party submitting a false police report may find themselves in legal troubles. Additionally, if a party to a divorce case is implicated in filing a report with false information deliberately, then it could potentially harm their credibility, which in turn could harm their case.


Sometimes, in divorces or custody battles, the parties involved may try to use a fake police report as a tactic to secure their desired ruling in court. Using such tactics can be disastrous and have serious consequences. The family courts have a responsibility to protect the children's best interests, and they prioritize it over any party's interests. Hence, if a party is found to have filed a fake police report to sway the judgment for obtaining an advantage in the case, it can harm the children's safety and stability.


Thus, it is advisable to be truthful in court proceedings and not try to manipulate the court or opposing parties through false police reports or any other means. Any attempt to deceive the court or manipulate the evidence weakens your case's legitimacy and can incriminate you. One should rely on legitimate evidence and argue their interests honestly and impartially.
