Tami Muntag, a daughter of Esti Weinstein A’H turned to a court to delay the burial of her mother by her chareidi family. The court accepted her request on Monday afternoon 21 Sivan, prohibiting the family from burying Mrs. Weinstein in a timely manner as planned.
As report, Weinstein became estranged to her husband and seven children when she began her journey of living a non-frum life eight years ago. The family is a member of the Gerre Chassidus in Eretz Yisrael. The children did not stay with their mother, with the exception of Tami, who adopted the non-frum lifestyle and remained with mom.
Tami arrived at the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute to prevent her chareidi family from Yerushalayim from taking the body for frum burial. Tami insists her mother wanted to be buried in the center of the country, not Yerushalayim.
Tel Aviv Family Court Justice Aviv Shafra-Glick granted the request and prohibited the Health Ministry and the forensic institute from issuing a burial permit.

Too sad to comment
So now we can see the bias of these judges. Imagine if it would be the other way around actually you don’t have to imagine just remember �
It seems a family to hardened to care about the poor mother’s feelings when she was alive, and seem not to want to care for her feelings now that she took her own life.
Tragic.
