        Legal linguistics is a new and interdisciplinary branch of applied linguistics and law, which uses linguistic tools and linguistic evidence to analyze spoken and written texts by experts, and in today's era, semantics and discourse analysis are more effective in improving judicial testimony. For this reason, the author has discussed and examined it using Grice's principles in a library method and with a descriptive-analytical approach, and the results of the article indicate that: the analysis of witness testimony with the help of various tools and principles, including "Grice's principles of cooperation" It is possible because the witness in the interrogation seeks to advance the testimony in favor of himself and the petitioner, and by violating the principle of Grice, he suffers contradictions in his testimony, but judicial courts, using linguistic principles, especially the principle of Grice, allow They don't allow the witness to continuously change or advance the subject according to his wish, or to advance the cases according to his wish and in his own interest. Examining the cases related to judicial testimony shows that when lying, witnesses make the most use of appearance and presumption, and the least they use is reference, inference, and subjective meanings.
