Ruling: [Last time, we saw that financial logic, the language of the agreement and an admission of pl in a different beit din all indicate that pl did not own 10% of the property but only has claims to 10% of profit.]
In general, legally and halachically, entry of ownership in the Tabu is very significant, and in this case, it seems to support pl. However, there are problems with the support it gives. Pl admits that he never had more than 10% rights, yet the Tabu had him at 25%, and now at 13.5%. Thus, the Tabu is not an accurate indication. Def1 does not appear in it at all, and yet all agree that he is the main owner and that the Tabu was done as it was for technical reasons (the sides preferred not to discuss details).
Arguably, pl has a migo (proof of telling the truth from the fact that he could have won with a claim that he admits is not true). In a case where the thing he wants to rely upon is invalid (the Tabu, in regard to this case), we have an indication from the gemara (Bava Batra 32b) that migo does not help. Our beit din has ruled in the past that when an entry in Tabu can be demonstrated to be incorrect, the Tabu is to be fixed rather than being able to validate that which is not true. The other official papers that state that pl is a 13.5% owner are just extensions of the Tabu entry.
Agr states that pl is to cooperate with requests for building permits, and based on the timing of the letter of understanding, it clearly applies to stage 2 of expansion as well. While an obligation to do something is not generally halachically binding, since def1 relied on the promise, pl would at least be obligated to pay for damages stemming from his refusal. Furthermore, in our times, an obligation to go along with a building practice can be binding based on dina d’malchuta (the Law of Contracts) and accepted practice. Therefore, pl is to cooperate with the process or face sanctions from beit din.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
