I feel like the key element is the knowledge of falsity, but I’m not certain if that’s what they’re asking for here.

I’m really unsure about option D. I thought any false statement could count, but does it have to be in court specifically?

I practiced a similar question where the focus was on whether the statement was made knowingly. I feel like that might be important here too.

I think I remember that for a penury offense, the false statement has to be material, but I'm not sure if it has to be made under oath.

The key here seems to be identifying the element that is not required for a perjury offense. I'll review the options and try to eliminate the ones that are required.

I'm leaning towards D as well. The question is asking what is NOT an element of perjury, and making a false statement in a court of law seems to fit that criteria.
