1. (1) Filed a false, frivolous, or malicious action or claim with the court;
2. (2) Brought an action or claim with the court solely or primarily for delay or harassment;
3. (3) Unreasonably expanded or delayed a judicial proceeding;
4. (4) Testified falsely or otherwise submitted false evidence or information to the court;
5. (5) Attempted to create or obtain a false affidavit, testimony, or evidence; or
