I hear your outrage. But I don't know if anyone can help you with this.

I'm not a Texas attorney.  And before any attorney could give you advice, he or she would need to know a lot more, every detail, of what happened so far, see all the paperwork.  You can find a lawyer who is qualified to review your case in a number of places, including our website, http://attorneypages.com

The problem here is proof:  a court decides what is just, based on the evidence that both sides present.  It isn't what you know to be true, it is what you can prove with proper evidence.

If there is a witness who wasn't physically involved who is testifying against you, you need something more than just your word to prove that this person is lying.  Another witness, or a photograph or video?  Without something like that, I doubt that there is much to say.

The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
