Why do you have to intentionally misrepresent things (lie)?

Flávio Dino (Appointed by Lula) Cármen Lúcia (Appointed by Lula) Cristiano Zanin (Appointed by Lula) Luiz Fux (Appointed by Lula)

If you don't follow the rulings of courts you get arrested under their jurisdiction. I don't understand how this is controversial.
