AFLALO V. AFLALO
685 A.2d 523 (1996)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute between Orthodox Jews.
FACTS: H and W were married in 1983 in Israel and have one child. W filed a complaint to
dissolve the marriage. H answered the complaint and does not want a divorce. The parties
engaged in a settlement conference but the issues were not resolved as H refused to give W a
'get.' As such, H refused to consent to a Jewish divorce. H's counsel, who was an Orthodox
Jew, filed a motion to be relieved as counsel because of his religious convictions; but that
was denied as H consented to following the recommendation of the Beth Din and give the 'get'
if that was the end result of those proceedings. W refused to settle without the 'get.' The
trial court addressed the issues of its ability to grant the divorce without the obtaining
of the 'get.'
