R’ KNOPFLER IS A DAYAN SHEKER – CERTIFIED BY THE RAMA!
R’ Knopfler keeps saying he relies on R’ Shternbach to force a Get by Muis Alay. The issue is that we don’t follow the Daas Yochid. The overwhelming majority of Rishonim and Achronim (231 Poskim) throughout all of Jewish history Paskin against him.
R’ Knopfler decided to follow the Daas Yochid as his heart desires. This makes a passul Get and Mamzerim.
The Rama says (Choshen Mishpat 25:2) that a Dayan that picks and chooses to follow any opinion as his heart desires, he’s a “Dayan Sheker”! See underlined in attached screenshots.
Additionally, the Rama says, if it’s an Issur Min HaTorah (such as the issue of Eishes Ish when it comes to forcing Gittin), we follow the stringent opinion even if it’s the minority opinion.
Regardless of the aforementioned, the overwhelming majority already ruled you cannot force by Muis Alay. It wouldn’t change, even if you only had the minority.
Moreover, the Rama says that we always follow the majority when there’s a dispute between a Daas Yochid and the majority opinion! (For Issur Doiraisa we always go L’Chumrah, as in the previous paragraph). This is accepted as foundational in all of Halacha that we follow the majority! See Klalei Halacha.
See Rama in Even Hoezer 154:21 that we posted on a previous date that you always follow the stricter opinion when it comes to forcing a Get because of the severity of Eishes Ish and Mamzerus…
….But R’ Knopfler thinks he could keep MISQUOTING the Rama to force a Get, Heaven Forbid!
