We Can’t Make This Up Even if We Tried

As an expert witness, Howard Cannon is always under oath. He spends his life bound to telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Recently, some investigators in Waco, Texas faced a $350 million lawsuit after lying under oath while in court for a restaurant case. The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth really shouldn’t be that hard.

When an expert witness lies under oath, the damage goes far beyond one case. Courts rely on expert testimony to explain technical, industry-specific facts that juries and judges wouldn’t otherwise know. If that testimony turns out to be false, it can collapse an entire legal strategy, expose the expert to perjury charges, and cost their client the case — and the credibility — they were counting on.

That’s exactly what happened to the investigators in Waco, Texas, whose dishonesty in a restaurant case led to a $350 million lawsuit. It’s a stark reminder that experts have to earn the title ‘expert witness’ through consistent, verifiable honesty — not just claim it on a business card.

This is why attorneys vetting a restaurant expert witness should look past credentials alone and ask about track record: How many cases has this expert testified in? Has anyone ever challenged or discredited their testimony? Howard Cannon’s 40 years in the industry and 200+ litigation cases speak to a standard of reliability that can withstand exactly this kind of scrutiny.
