Translation of the Psak

Since the above mentioned beis din of five has already deliberated and made a psak din regarding accepting the elected Rov and determined that he should take his position [of rabbonus], there is no place for any summons or ikul from any other Beis Din in this matter.

Psak!

The Clock is Ticking

I've been asked numerous times for information about the rabbonim I am going to for counsel now that Rabbi Rosenberg is retired from the zablo

In the interest of the rabbonim involved, that has to stay confidential for now. It's no secret that those who are involved in this Din Torah are subject to a shocking amount of harassment and manipulation, myself included.

Daas Torah

I learned of Rabbi Rosenberg's retirement from the zablo the same day I finally was forwarded a hazmonah from Rabbi Krauss. The "perfect timing" has left me under a bit of duress.

With regards to the Rabbonim, I'm proud to stand by everything I've said and done until now. This is because everything I've done has been according to Daas Torah and totally free of my personal opinions and aspirations. Depending upon an impartial Rov for guidance, someone who undertakes the achrayus of paskening halachah, was an incredible source of strength and confidence, I must say.

Let's Be Clear...

To clarify my previous remarks on the ikul issued by the beis din of Rabbi Krauss:

We have not been told by the zablo to ignore the ikul.

What's with the Ikul?!

A few days after the ikul was issued, I was in communication with Rabbi Rosenberg, and we discussed a conversation he had with Rabbi Krauss (who issued the ikul).

In a conversation between Rabbi Rosenberg and Rabbi Krauss, Rabbi Rosenberg informed Rabbi Krauss that even before the ikul was issued:

1. The hachtarah had already taken place
2. Rabbi Braun's contract had already been signed by the majority of the vaad members, and was apparently in full effect
3. That the shtar birurin of the zablo din torah had been signed on by all of the elected bodies of the kohol (the Vaad Hakohol, the Rabbonim, Gabboim, etc.)
4. The elections had taken place in a very public manner, under the guidance of the zablo, and that a large majority of the kohol had participated

These crucial details may have not been disclosed to Rabbi Krauss by the plaintiffs at the time the ikul was issued.

WHO is "CROWN HEIGHTS?"

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

The language of the ikul issued by the Beis Din of Rabbi Chaim Kraus, shlita, implies that members of our community, unrelated to the Zabla, have requested the ikul on behalf of the entire Crown Heights community.

However, the names of these individuals were not stated in the ikul document, nor were they disclosed (to my knowledge) to any member of the Vaad Hakohol.
