Description

Amonst the many sugyos on this daf in Bava metzia, we have the issue of: do we trust the defendant's claim 'I've already paid up'? For example, the lender received the final verdict from the Beis Din that he indeed owes the lender $. Can the borrower claim that he hastily fulfilled the mandate of the court & paid his debt? We will discuss the case of one who finds a Shtar, can he return it to the lender even if the borrower denies the loan or claims he's already paid up? We will discuss the status of תנאי בי"ד in the case of a Ketuba. Must she produce the actual Ketuba document in order to override the claim of the husband that he's already paid? What about a local where they don't write an actual ketuba document? Or a widow from אירוסין?
