My sister has just had her attorney file a response to the petition to settle my parents' estate. In it, she states an absolute falsehood, accusing me of something I absolutely did not do and claiming she has a right to something of which she has none.
In a court document, can those lies be considered libelous and/or defamatory of character, perjury, or just the rants of a pathetically sick individual. I'd like to sue her nasty a** and shut her mouth once and for all, at tremendous expense to her.
I can prove she's lying. Does anyone know if I can sue her with any hope of winning?

If it was written in a newspaper you would have grounds to sue for libel, I can't see the difference if this lie was written in a court petition, if I were you I would sue the a$$ of the b***h, if as you say you have proof it's not true your lawyer will jump at the chance of some easy earnings.

You can file a civil suit and represent yourself. Just convince the judge. Either or both of you can still bring a layer. File for around $56. This is from James. You can call your county atty. Just call the office at the courthouse and the person who answers will tell you what to do………..

I know I can file myself....and $56 is from another century Try $300+
Sounds expensive to me Phyl. I don't know a lot about law,especially Californian law but I do know the only real winners are the lawyers.
