Can you change info once you submit it to court under oath?

If you press charges against someone and when you submit it's under oath, but then realized you gave the wrong date...are you allowed to go back and say "oh wait, I messed up. I put the wrong date!" Also, if the judge finds out you completely lied...what can you be charged with?

That's what's happening to this dumb girl..and I'm curious what could happen.

Thanks!
 
Really intentionally lied? perjury.
Made a simple mistake? you amend the statement, no problem.
Intentionally lied while on the stand at a hearing? If you admit and tell the truth before that hearing is over no legal problem (plenty of problems with people believing whatever you are saying but not legal ones)
