It depends upon where you lie. If you lie on the witness stand or while under oath you could end up in jail. Lying on government documents can also lead to criminal penalties. Lying on school and Job Applications can lead to other penalties.

It is illegal to lie about someone else if you are hurting their reputation. So for instance if you are walking and you say something bad about a person and it is not true you are hurting the persons reputation, your making him look bad. That is illegal. I know that may not be a good example though.
