Supreme Court Justice Edmond Levy on erev shabbos rejected the proposed compromise agreement reached in the Emanuel Beis Yaakov affair intended to bring an end to the painful case.

In his ruling, Justice Levy explained the fathers serving prison sentences and the mothers slated to begin theirs upon release of the fathers is the direct result of their lack of adherence to the High Court, and this is a basic concept that must be understood. He added that ongoing efforts towards a solution cannot include the contemptuous parents who must serve their prison terms for their acts of defiance.

Levy adds the only way to release the fathers and mothers from prison sentences is compliance with paragraph 4 (a) of his ruling dated June 15, 2010, that each defiant parent submits a letter to the court stating a willingness to comply with its decision and sending daughters to the school in a full integration environment.

On erev shabbos YWN-ISRAEL reported that Aryeh Deri was working with a number of rabbonim and a compromise agreement was reached to bring the matter to an end.

It would appear that Sunday’s scheduled hearing in the case before Justice Levy will be another stormy one as the court rejected the agreement and the international chareidi community is gearing up to take unprecedented actions to prevent the incarceration of the Emanuel mothers.
