I did consider this and protected myself by letting the judges know in a side letter about some background.
Obviously would not have pursued this matter if I wasn't a fairly well-connected person and Covid-19 restrictions made available the time to do so.
The veracity of the case can be trivially verified as I filed nearly everything electronically thus have receipts with digital signatures. A singular court decision was also served digitally because an enraged judge wanted it served instantly right after an ex-parte phone call didn't go the way he had thought.
prison might be the nice outcome.
Note I'm making a lot of assumptions here on the validity/veracity of the story.
