Dear Dr. Lang:

You asked me for an advisory opinion about the current status of the Injunction (T.R.O.) that we obtained tins past Wednesday restraining tile Sunday elections called by Yisroel Best, as well as tile lawsuit in general as it pertains to the elections.

With regard to the injunction, the Appellate Division yesterday issued a “stay” of the “TRO” to the four persons who appealed, those being Respondents Yisroel Best, Yisroel Sandhaus, Yisroel Landau and Eli Poltarok. As none of the other 14 Respondents (candidates) appealed the injunction, a very strong argument can be made that the Appellate Division's Order does not protect or apply to them. The other 14 Respondents are: Kalman Bialestock, Fishel Brownstein, Zev Cadaner, Yossi Keller, Yossel Motchkin, Yaacov Rogalsky, Mendel Shagalov, Chanina Sperlin, Zaki Tamir, Uri Niazov, Gershon Chaimson, Motel Chein, Zalman Lipsker, and Y. Boruch Spielman.

Attorney David Berger Explains what happened in Court

Dear Dr. Lang:

You asked me for an advisory opinion about the current status of the Injunction (T.R.O.) that we obtained tins past Wednesday restraining tile Sunday elections called by Yisroel Best, as well as tile lawsuit in general as it pertains to the elections.

With regard to the injunction, the Appellate Division yesterday issued a “stay” of the “TRO” to the four persons who appealed, those being Respondents Yisroel Best, Yisroel Sandhaus, Yisroel Landau and Eli Poltarok. As none of the other 14 Respondents (candidates) appealed the injunction, a very strong argument can be made that the Appellate Division’s Order does not protect or apply to them. The other 14 Respondents are: Kalman Bialestock, Fishel Brownstein, Zev Cadaner, Yossi Keller, Yossel Motchkin, Yaacov Rogalsky, Mendel Shagalov, Chanina Sperlin, Zaki Tamir, Uri Niazov, Gershon Chaimson, Motel Chein, Zalman Lipsker, and Y. Boruch Spielman.

The Court of Appeals, the highest Court in New York State, has long held that the Appellate Division has no power or authority to grant relief of any sort to a non-appealing party, even when the issues are exactly tile same. Thus, in the Court of Appeals case of Hecht v. City of New York, 60 N.Y.2d 57, at 62 (1983), where the City appealed ajudgment and tlleir co-defendant did not, the Court held, and I quote in excerpts:

“an appellate court’s reversal or modification of a judgment as to an appealing party will not inure to the benefit of a nonappealing coparty unless the judgment was rendered against parties having a united and inseverable interest in the judgment’s subject matter, which itself permits no inconsistent application among the parties *** When multiple tort-feasors are found to be liable for damages, they may not be said to have an inseverable interest in tile judgment, even though the factual basis for each party’s liability is identical. *** This court now holds that neither CPLR 5522 nor any other statutory or constitutional authority permits an appellate court to exercise any general discretionary power to grant relief to a nonappealing party. ***
Judgments are no longer necessarily viewed as indivisible entireties, reversal of which as to one of the parties necessarily effecting a reversal as to all parties against whom the judgment was rendered *** CPLR 5522, therefore, should be read in harmony with the statutory scheme which limits an appellate court’s authority to the grant of relief to those who have appealed, except as discussed above.”

In this case, the Honorable Justice Laura Jacobson of the New York State Supreme Court issued an injunction restraining and prohibiting the Respondents in the lawsuit from “holding, conducting or participating in the elections presently called for May 24, 2009.” As the Appellate Division stayed this T.R.O. as to Mssrs. Best, Sandhaus, Landau and Poltarok, these four individuals cannot be lawfully kept from holding elections, even though doing so is in direct violation of the Beth Din of Crown Heights’ several Orders directing them not to do so.

However, it seems to me that the other 14 Respondents cannot and, indeed, are prohibited from participating in the days events, and any results from the elections, at least until the June 3rd hearing on the pending lawsuit, and that these 14 persons would in fact risk a contempt of court finding if they did participate. They chose not to appeal Justice Jacobson’s Order, and they therefore cannot now seek to benefit from the relief obtained by those who did.

In any event, the lawsuit, which simply seeks an Order from the Supreme Court to enforce the Psak of the Beth Din of Crown Heights prohibiting the elections, continues with all due force and effect. On June 3rd the issues will be heard by the Court and, hopefully, decided in favor of the Vaad Hakohol – which seeks from Court only to enforce the Rabbi’s 3-1 majority Psak In this regard, Eli Poltarok successfully submitted to the Appellate Division, by written affidavit signed by him, at paragraph 11 of his affidavit, that “no harm would result from the election as it can be contested thereafter.” As Mr. Poltarok correctly pointed out, and certainly must adhere to, there can and will be no effect nor enforcement of any results of the election until tile Supreme Court gives it’s stamp of approval. Of course, we believe it will not, and, in fact, the elections will be nullified retroactively, but all this will have to await the final outcome of the court proceedings.

I hope the above clarifies matters for you. I presume, based on his representations to the Appellate Division and his standing as a law abiding member of the community and the legal Bar, that neither Mr. Poltarok nor any of his colleagues for that matter, will seek to cause any unrest before the State Supreme Court makes it’s determinations. Wishing you all the best.

Very truly yours,
David M. Berger

    I don’t like both sides, for both are responsible for Machlokes, mesira etc…
    This group fighting now are the same people who have been making machlokes in Crown Heights for the last 20 years, as far as We the normal people (the people that have to get up in the morning to work, the people that care for our family, the people that are actually out there helping our fellow neighbors etc…) are concerned, they can kill each other.

    BUT MY FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTER, NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS
    DO NOT VOTE!
    A VOTE FOR THESE PEOPLE IS A VOTE FOR MORE MACHLOKES!
    A VOTE FOR THESE GUYS IS A VOTE FOR MORE MESIRA!
    A VOTE FOR THESE GUYS IS A VOTE FOR MORE HITTING!
    A VOTE FOR THEM IS A VOTE AGAINST THE COMMUNITY!

  • SAME PEOPLE DIFFERENT MACHLOKES!

    SAME PEOPLE DIFFERENT MACHLOKES!
    NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN!

    …“After they were informed by the bank,
    Spritzer and Schreiber,
    at the end of winter, 1997, decided to sue us in Federal court under RICO for over $2,000,000! Concocting a bunch of libels and falsehoods, they accused us of terrorizing, mail fraud and embezzlement, that Meir Hershkop had taken money for himself and tried to gain control of the camp by hiring his son-in-law as its manager.

    This was a diversionary tactic to enable them to seize full control of the camp.They succeeded at first giving the judge a negative impression of us. They brought false witnesses including
    Joseph Spielman,
    Yaakov Herzog, and
    Yisroel Sandhaus,
    who all testified falsely against us in court! Spielman testified that his van had been burned and he believed it was Hershkop who did it. This testimony persuaded the judge to reopen the bank account for them and issue a restraining order against us, forbidding us to come in contact with the plaintiffs or with the camp.”

  • who can help? who can make a diffrence?

    Over a year ago members of Shomrim were on a call at 749 Eastern Parkway, there, things got out of hand and police were called by both the Shomrim members and the Bochurim that were involved. From the get-go Shmira a long time rival of Shomrim came to the scene and initiated the Mesira against Shomrim. Leib Skoblo and Ezra Hecht (who only showed up after the incident) stood inside 749, Skoblo with his auxiliary badge in hand demanded that the police arrest Shomrim for the alleged crimes they committed.

    The police investigated and with no injured complainers on hand, they left the scene. Skoblo not comfortable with the police decision then called for Stern, Prager and Huebner for backup. All night they shuttled Bochorim in the Shmira patrol car from 749 to Kings County Hospital. They made sure reports were filed with the hospital and then the police were called again to make reports. They made sure they doted their “I’s” and crossed all their “T’s”. In an e-mail conversation with a Shomrim member he states…” Had Shomrim known of there plans they would have made cross complaints, as there were members of Shomrim that were injured, and everyone would either get arrested or go home. Further had shmira not have gotten involved, Shomrim would have worked it out with the Bochrim in a peaceful manner”.

    For two weeks Paul Huebner, who acts as the attorney for Shmira, worked the 77th precinct , pressuring detective Brien Duffy to arrest the Shomrim members. Shuffling the Bochurim back and forth to the police station, even giving sworn statements on Shabbos (all this is documented).

    When word got out about that detectives were looking for the Shomrim members, Shomrim turned to Rabbi Schwei, a prominent member of the Rabbinical Court (of Crown Heights) for help. He heard all that they had to say and simply answered ” I don’t want to take such people on” (!?)“

    When Shomrim went to Mendle Hendle (who is in charge of these Bochrim) he said ”I want to teach you guys a lesson“.
    To others he said ”I want to get Krinsky so I’m going after the Shomrim”. What does Shomrim have to do with Krinsky? g-d knows.

    Voting in this elections is voting for Hendle,
    voting for Hendle is voting for total destruction.
    Let’s deal with one problem at a time, but in the meantime let’s not create more (we have plenty).

  • election committe

    This is stupid scare tactics from
    Berger and co. The reason Berger lost the appeal was because he was caught with 5 different lies on the spot. He is now lying again. The appelate court reversed the ENTIRE injuction, and its not limited to the appellants. it has been stayed and it is as if the injunction was never brought in the first place. Whoever wins this election has the right to take office right away as soon as the election has been certified by the Netzigim. do not be mislead by berger or lang or anyone else who is trying to subvert the election.

  • Tzvi

    Why don’t you post a copy of the Supreme Court Appellate Division’s stay and you will se clearly that this lawyers are so incompetent and a bunch of liers.

  • breger handel rubbishhkin

    there is a very big porblem
    you do as directed by a rov
    if you vote you listen to one and if you dont you listen to the other how can we disobey both ?

  • Truth

    Everyone look at the order you will see it was against the entire TRO not only agianst indiviual. this is just a scare tactice

  • Shliach

    We are losing our youth to goyishkeit at horrendous rates and the levels of chassidishkeit in Crown Heights continue to decline yet all these grown men can think of doing is fighting over a bunch of garbage. How can our youth be expected to listen to the leaders and rabbonim in the community when they continue to act like this.

  • DEFY this Osdoba who has no respect you

    I always find it so funny when Blacks see Jews in the street and they yell “HITLER”, these STUPID blacks fail to realize that Hitler wanted and did kill all Blacks, could get his hands on, not any less, than he killed Jews.

    Same HERE!

    This Osdoba (whom some foolishly support) is the same Osdoba who initially wrote a Siruv against the Hershkops, against Rabbi Krinsky and against Rabbi Shemtov and against Rabbi Fisher.

    Rabbi Schwei never wrote ANY siruv NOT against Rabbi Fisher and NOT against Rabbi Krinsky and NOT against Rabbi Shemtov and NOT against Hershkop.

    Anyone who votes tomorrow, it is a vote against all of Osdoba SIRUV’s that he hung up in 770 – the very ones which you always wanted to take down.

    Now is your chance not just to “take down” the siruv but to take down the MAN, Osdoba, who put it up all these siruv’s against everyone else.

    All those who have any respect for Rabbi Krinsky and for Rabbi Shemtov, must come out to vote in order to DEFY this hypocritical-Osdoba, who dared to shamed the Rebbe’s secretary and shamed Rabbi Fisher who all did so much for our community.

  • Hendel should go

    Is this the same Mendel Hendel who teaches (G-d only knows what!) at that school Ohr Menachem? So not only does he cause trouble in 770 & in court, he is responsible for abusing young minds? Shame on the school for hiring such a destructive person. I saw his name all over a brochure for a super-expensive dinner that no doubt will be funding these court cases.

  • Not Voting because of Ravs Isure

    This brings a new meaning to “asey L’cho Rav”.

    May we all be Mikable the Torah with Simcha u’Bepnimiyus.

  • Anti Hate

    After Gimmel Tamuz, people all over the world were predicting how long it would take for Lubavitch to fall apart…….

    Guys, we lasted 14 years to start falling apart because of this garbage?

    The Youth are looking for legitimate reasons to stop being Lubavitch/Frum and you guys are helping them make their decisions sooner.

    JUST GET ALONG, YOU BUNCH OF BABIES.

    We want moshiach, right? Yechi Adoneinu, right?
    You want a guarantee that Moshiach never comes? We’ll, guess what? You’re on the right damn track!!!!

    Be a good jew, veohavto Lereacha and maybe, just maybe, Moshiach will come! After all, isn’t that what we as lubavitchers supposedly live for?

  • chochem

    this seems a bit fishy here… why are almost all comments quoting mendel hendel spelling his name wrong the same way? perhaps it’s the smae guy writing all the comments against ‘mendle hendle’

  • Kadaner is disqualified

    According to the Netzigin ByLaws, anyone who heads any organization or Mosad in CH is disqualified form running for CHJCC Board of Directors / Vaad Hakohol.

    Kadaner runs 2 meshichist Schools in CH, one for boys Ohr Menachem and another for Girls Beis Chaya Mushka.

    It’s a conflict of interest to have someone who needs money for his schools siphoning off money form the CHJCC funds for his own Mosad.

    Here is an example of the Chutzpah that Kadaners Girl’s school has:

    Kadaner’s Girls school Beis Chaya Mushka, sent out a letter, to every parent in their school, that they “EXPECT” every parent to sign up every single child in their household, to all be enrolled in to Beis Chaya Mushka’s YOUTH CORE program – regardless if they will really be working or not and regardless if they may be in other caps or schools during the summer.

    They didn’t even gave the decency to offer the participants anything in return just that it’s EXPECTED – they sent this letter to every parent in the school 3 times in recent weeks!

    Now can you imagine what someone with SUCH heartless CHUTZPAH will do when he runs the CHJCC? ? ?

  • now is our chance

    We sealed our fate when a convicted felon was not only permitted to run for CHJCC but was actually elected Chairman! In any form of government that would never happen. We are the laughing stock of City, state AND Federal governments. Our elected officials may be stupid in many respects, but they know the insanity of Crown Heights.

    I don’t know why people spell spell Mendel Hendel’s name incorrectly…typos, they are illiterate, or (& this must be the same thing) they went to Oholei Torah?

    We’re falling apart after 14 years? No. we started falling apart ON Gimmel Tammuz when the tambourines & dancing started.

    These comments are great. Keep them coming! But commenting isn’t going to change anything. The by-laws need to be changed once & for all. I’m not a liar (sorry, lawyer) so I wouldn’t know how to do it, but the first thing that needs to be done is to stop any collusion between the Rabbonim & secular politics. Neither R. Osdoba nor R. Schwei should be mixing in. They should stick to answering shaalohs. Then give women the right to vote. Surely this system is illegal? Why can’t women be on the CHJCC? Why is it only for men? Because they have to liaise with the Rabbonim? See first point.

    Most people in CH are apathetic. We are burned out by the viciousness between neighbors, by all our resources going to fight court battles (how much do lawyers charge? Even lousy ones?) It’s the apathetic majority that lets the evil minority rule. What is it that Edmund Burke said?

    “All that is necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.”

    That says it all. Oh, and we can get the roads dug up for 15 months.

  • True but not True!

    to:DEFY this Osdoba who has no respect who wrote:

    “This Osdoba (whom some foolishly support) is the same Osdoba who initially wrote a Siruv against the Hershkops, against Rabbi Krinsky and against Rabbi Shemtov and against Rabbi Fisher.

    Rabbi Schwei never wrote ANY siruv NOT against Rabbi Fisher and NOT against Rabbi Krinsky and NOT against Rabbi Shemtov and NOT against Hershkop.”

    100% true, but if you look at who was pushing/behind him then and look (now) whos behind Rabbi Schwei you will find the same people, who are JUST as guilty as the Rav for all the trouble. They all worked hand in hand.
    Now thet Herzog, Spritzer Sandhuse etc… are against Osdaba because of their own agenda. they have not done Thishva, they have not asked Mechela from the people they hurt etc…

    So a Vote for them is a vote of more of the same (maybe this time even worse).

    Like I wrote above, we have plenty of problem, lets deal with them one at a time, meanwhile let’s not create another.

  • hershkops

    Why so all the websites allow the hershkops to spam their websites. They are spewing hatred all over the place, and their comments are totally irrelevant to the issues posted on the sites. Lets have some editorial discretion . Their old vendettas against hendel , Spritzer or herzog have no relevance to these elections whatsoever, and they only degrade the quality of the sites.

  • Hershkops are fighting for what Right!

    Mesira-irrelevant?
    Court-irrelevant?
    stealing-irrelevant?
    terror-irrelevant?

    Let’s ignore the facts, we have an agenda to push.
    Every time someone represents the facts, its called Hatred, bigotry etc…?
    Complaining about a problem is not causing it, its just exposes it!

    “hendel , Spritzer or herzog have no relevance to these elections whatsoever”

    The fact that you have to come defend that, is already a proof that they do have a lot to do with these elections.

    Spritzer and Herzog are all over this.
    Herzog with his site.
    Spritzer signed the propaganda papers.
    Hendle had meetings with the candidates and is paying for all the flayers and everything in reference to these elections.

    What really bothering you is that perhaps the Hershkops have a point in saying YOU ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE MACHLOKES THAT HAS RECKED OUR COMMUNITY FOR THE LAST @% YEARS.

    When the Hershkops were fighting your fight, then they were Heroes, you can’t stand that they came out and admitted that they made a mistake and apologized to all those that got hurt or offended.

    You can’t stand them because they expose you for who you really are.
    Just a bunch of hate mongering Mossrim!

  • mosserim

    “We sealed our fate when a convicted felon was not only permitted to run for CHJCC but was actually elected Chairman!”

    I love that statement,
    These people get mossered on from other Yidden from the community and then those same mossrim call them criminals.

    If you ask me on which side I would rather be on?
    I would rather be the convicted criminal then the Mosseir.
    Stop justifying Mesira!

  • Machne M

    to:DEFY this Osdoba who has no respect who wrote:
    “Rabbi Schwei never wrote ANY siruv NOT against Rabbi Fisher and NOT against Rabbi Krinsky and NOT against Rabbi Shemtov and NOT against Hershkop.”

    I agree with everything your saying except the above,
    Rabbi Schwei also got involved in the story with the camp when he shouldn’t have,He signed a psak for spritzer even though he was not at any Din Torah. When asked about it he said that he made a mistake (that osdoba told him to do it), but he never came out (with a letter) taking back what he did. The damage was done, because of him Hundreds of Children from our community lost out on a great opportunity to go to camp.
    Rabbi Schwei is no different then how hes fighting.

  • great full

    to the anti hershkop guy above:

    As a person who Baroch Hashem had pleaser from the food that was given out Erev Yom-tov by the Hershkops, I wounder if you took time out of your day to unload the truck, I wounder if you took time out of your day to drop off food on porches of people who were to embarrassed to come.

    great full

  • blame game

    To all those getting of subject and trying to involve name that have nothing to do with this situation. apparently Hershkop are the antidote to this people and you just cant stand people who are true.
    its like the current administration involving rush limbaugh “i want obama to fail” when it has nothing to do with any situation

    if chanina is a mosser hes a mosser
    if herzog is a mosser hes a mosser
    if spritzer is a mosser hes a mosser
    screaming hershkop does not change the facts
    your just trying to downplay your corruptness

    obviously this person knows a thing or two about what has happened in the past with these notorious mossrim gangsters, and i would say for sure that this person knows what it going on EVEN NOW with these mossrim SPRITZER, HENDLE ETC. yet he calls IT “OLD” as in it’s in the past, FORGOTTEN, as if it happened to our grandfathers, and we read about it in their memoirs.
    SO READ THIS AND READ IT GOOD YOU IGNORAMOUS FOOL
    THE TERROR AND MESSIRA IS HAPPENING HERE AND NOW AND THE TRUTH WILL BE TOLD AND TOLD AND TOLD AND THEN TOLD BY OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN AND TO ALL THE REAL HATE MONGERS LIKE THIS IDIOT COMMENTER WHO HIDES BEHIND THE DISGUISE OF HIS PERCIEVED ENEMY CALLING HIMSELF HERSHKOP, YOU CAN CRY ALL YOU WANT because the only thing irrelevant are people like this commenter, NOTHING WILL BE FORGOTTEN, GOOD ALWAYS WINS OVER EVIL.

    P.S.
    As someone who was massered on, locked up, and in court every second monday I WOULD BE PROUD TO BE CALLED A CONVICT. after all ALMOST EVERY REBBE, THE ALTER REBBE ETC. WAS A CONVICT, LOCKED UP ON THE MESSIRA OF OTHER JEWS, AND FAKE JEWS LIKE THE FAILURE OF A LAWYER PAUL HUEBENER so anyone can come after me, they’ll just have to sweat a little and mabey there will be a holiday in my honor one day.

  • an out of town mom

    You idiots. I can’t believe what I’m reading. My kid went to learn in CH and now he’s freiing out…..why? I’m sure there are many reasons, but the one he gives is because of the outrageous hypocrisy he sees from the very people he was taught to respect. He sees arrogance, hatred, loshon hora, jealousy, back stabbing.

    What have you all done to yourselves, to us? To whom can I send my son? Who actually lives what they preach? Who can I possibly tell him is worthy of respect?

    Ugh. You stupid, stupid people who are destroying the Rebbe’s community. All of you. Every minute this continues is another minute Moshiach must wait. And I know…every one to whom I direct this believes that they are so misunderstood.
    What have we done to ourselves? What has happened to us?
    Blind idiots.

  • WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE............

    I AGREE WITH “an out of town mom”.
    WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU PEOPLE- IS GREED, POWER, MONEY, AND POSITION ALL THAT MATTERS TO YOU-
    IF I WASN’T SURE THESE WERE JEWISH – CHASSIDISHE NAMES I WAS READING , I’D THINK IT WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT CORRUPTION AND TAKE OVERS IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD IN A GOYISHE NEWSPAPER.
    SHE’S RIGHT , DO YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT IF THE REBBE WOULD BE PROUD OF WHAT AND WHO YOU ARE TODAY.
    YOU DEGRADE AND SHAME AND DEMORALIZE THE YOUNGSTERS WHO ARE ALL FLOUNDERING AROUND FOR GUIDANCE.
    IF THEY WON’T FIND INSPIRATION AND PEOPLE TO ADMIRE AND LOOK UP TO, WHO HAVE MORALS AND ETHICS THAT THEY REALLY BELIEVE IN AND LIVE BY- NOT JUST WEAR AS A SHOW, THEN THE KIDS AND TEENAGERS MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE AND NOT LOOK FOR OTHER ALTERNATIVES.

  • truthmonger

    Sorry people, but this machlokes is l’shaim shmayim. The Rebbe wanted a system of justice and kindness in CH, with an elected Beis Din, Vaad Hakahal and Netzigim all working together for the benefit of the shcuna, kan tziva Hashem es habracha, but from the beginning a war was waged against it by various factions with various agendas. The time has come for it to function as it should, truth will prevail, and hiding behind Yechi is not going to help if you’re going against the Rebbe’s ratzon.
