No it doesn’t. A charge of, Perjury, is a completely separate charge, that usually arises from testimony given during a trial, Grand Jury, deposition, or sworn testimony before a Congressional committee, and the person in question is providing that information, Under Oath.

The whole, raise your right hand, swear or affirm that you’ll tell the truth, whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God.

This is entirely different than the Feds charging you with 18USC1001, providing false information, etc.

I don’t know that we are disagreeing. My point was, if you gave “perjury” as a reason for firing someone, wouldn’t her or she have to have been convicted of the charge? I would assume that it would be the same with “providing false information”. It would allow the firee to appeal his firing. By saying someone “lacked candor” you’re saying he was less than honest without crossing any legal tripwires. But I’m not a lawyer, so what do I know?
