Темы: не определены автоматически. the "TillesTells Saturday Night Stories” WhatsApp group Priorities & Calibrations As a civil trial attorney in the Hancock Park section of Los Angeles, with an emphasis on bankruptcy and Bais Din (Rabbinical Court) litigation, I [Baruch Cohen] had for many years the great honor of representing Chabad of the Valley, under the guidance of Rabbi Yehoshua "Josh" Gordon, of blessed memory. During the break in the deposition, when we recessed, Rabbi Gordon had pulled me to the side to get my impressions as to how he was testifying, and my strategies about our defense, when all of a sudden, out of nowhere, he changed the subject, and curiously asked me if I knew whether the trustee's counsel was Jewish. He told me that during the deposition, while being questioned, he detected something "Jewish" in the way the interrogator was asking him follow-up questions about Chabad; and that his "Ahavas Yisroel [Love of Fellow Jew] Radar" was always "on," even in tense situations like this. The trustee's counsel was getting more and more irritated by Rabbi Gordon's line of questions, and didn't want to engage Rabbi Gordon about his heritage, and responded in a stern tone that he never put on tefillin, insisting that we go back on the record, and resume the questioning. I was totally floored at his unrehearsed presentation to the judge, as I had no idea Rabbi Gordon had such a breadth of knowledge in the highly specialized area of the Choshen Mishpat (4th and final volume of Shulchan Aruch) dealing with complex monetary disputes. commemorating the end of the traditional 30-day mourning period, published on COLlive.com Biographical note: Rabbi Yehoshua-Binyomin "Josh" Gordon was the founder and executive director of Chabad of the Valley in Southern California, established in 1973, and spiritual leader of Chabad of Encino. The judge's tentative ruling was intentionally vague as to who would win the summary judgment, and during the hearing, the judge asked Rabbi Gordon what the Jewish Law was on whether creditors had the right to recover charitable contributions from a charity. The trustee's tone was now forceful that the Jewish-Tefillin conversation has come to an end, he made it very clear that he didn't believe in whatever Rabbi Gordon was "shoveling" and he absolutely refused to participate in
