Libel
No one can knowingly communicate an untruth about another party in
such a way that the party's credibility is reduced, or the party's
formally or informally adjudicated eligibility for or likelihood of
attainment of a right, privilege, entitlement, position, or
engagement, is reduced, provided that the state is not the party at
issue. The penalty for such a communication is publication of
conviction for the act, and payment for the cost of trial, if any.
