Legal Question in Legal Ethics in New York
Is it a legal offense to lie about one's educational degree in the US? This is concerning an Islamic marriage officiant licensed by the state of Virginia who wrongly claims to have a Ph.D. in Counseling and Development from George Washington University. Thank you!
