2. ““It is, of course, clear that ‘false swearing’ and ‘perjury’ are separate things. All ‘false swearing’ is not perjury. In Arizona, as in all other jurisdictions, the quality of materiality of the perjurious testimony to the issue in which it is given is necessary to raise the ‘false swearing’ to the degree of perjury. The lesser offense is one unknown to the laws of this state as an indictable offense.””
