    Rabbinical Council of America mandates halachic prenup

    According to JTA, The Rabbinical Council of America will mandate its member rabbis to require couples to sign a prenuptial agreement ensuring that husbands will not withhold a get, or Jewish writ of divorce, from their wives.

    The agreement, commonly referred to as a “halachic prenup,” generally penalizes the husband financially for refusing to give the get.
