The Latin maxim “falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus” means "false in one thing, false in everything." The Supreme Court of Pakistan (SCP) has validated the applicability of the maxim. This paper is restricted to critically analysing the extraneous and non-practical assumptions made by SCP that have been lessening the scope of the judge and closing the doors of the court for the witnesses. The paper qualitatively conducts a comparative survey of Pakistani and Indian Judicial attitudes toward the maxim to pinpoint passive assumptions made by SCP while validating the applicability of the maxim.
