Falsity definition

Falsity means 'not right' or 'not true.' Since it may imply the falsity in both contents and form, its meaning should be clarified before it becomes an element of a crime. For example, the act of defamation is defaming someone by 'indicating false information' not defaming someone with 'falsity.' Likewise, in the crime involving document, 'falsity' is raised to designate the falsity in contents while 'forgery' to designate falsity in form and name. These distinctions are set to satisfy the rule of clarity.
