Former Minister of Justice Yaakov Ne’eman said Sunday that the solution to a crisis in Israeli courts is for Israelis to use the halachic court system which follows traditional Jewish law. Ne’eman made these comments in a conference on monetary issues held at Bar Ilan University.

Ne’eman explained that monetary cases currently take an inordinate amount of time to come to completion in the secular law system. He said that plaintiffs should make more use of the halachic law system which is similar to an arbitration system.
