Helping someone cheat in court to gain his rightful property

Hi,

"Even where one knows that a party has been cheated, and that the opposing litigant is lying, one may in no way teach him claims that will assist him."

ואפילו ידע שהוא עשוק, ושבעל דינו טוען עליו בשקר לפי הכרע הסברה, אין מותר לו ללמדו טענה שתצילהו בשום פנים 

(Rambam, Commentary to Mishnah Avot 1:8)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
