Can you sue someone for lying in court?

A friend of mine is going through a divorce. One day out of nowhere the police show up along with the guy she is divorcing with a court order to take their kids from her. Her husband apparently went to the courts and filed some type of emergency restraining order claiming she is a cocaine addict and that the kids were not safe with her. The judge granted the order based solely on his word and no proof whatsoever. It was a complete lie, she went and had a hair follicle test done the next day and passed it.

In the meantime though until they went in for a hearing she was not able to see her kids at all. Four months went by until they went to court. She did get her kids back but they ordered her to pay him child support for those four months and they did nothing to him at all for going into court and making this shit up.

This guy is a real fucking prick. They were together for 15 years and during that time he would constantly try to kill her self esteem by telling her shit like no man would ever want her because she's ugly (she's not at all), always told her she was worthless, etc. and in the meantime he cheated every chance he could. So when she finally decided to leave his sorry ass he found out about it and threw her and their kids on the street with just the clothes on their backs and kept everything (including her clothes, car, money, etc) until the courts forced him to divide the property which took at least 8 months. By then of course he had gotten rid of everything. He has really manipulated the system and lied constantly in court and for some reason the judge in their divorce let him get away with it.

So I told her she needs to sue his ass for the damages of going into court and lying. Anyone have any experience with anything like this?
