The Presidency of the Court of First Instance - Baghdad
The Jewish Religious Court in Baghdad had issued a judgment
in person on 2/11/944 for the plaintiff Sabiha Rahmin Ali Moshi Rahmin
the guardian of her minor son Moshi Naji from her husband Moshi Daoud Balas, ruling
to obtain an amount of 422/750 four hundred and twenty-two dinars and seven hundred
and fifty fils, which is the amount of her entitlement from her stipulated dowry in addition
to the estate of her deceased husband. And upon notifying the rest of the heirs of the issued judgment, it appeared
that there is another daughter named Tuffaha Sunbula, who is from his second wife Naima
daughter of Ezra Sofer, and she has no guardian or trustee. The aforementioned plaintiff Sabiha
has requested the appointment of a guardian for the mentioned girl to carry out the notification and the resulting
litigation on her behalf. Therefore, the court found that the minor's uncle, named Naim
Ezra Sofer, is fit for guardianship over her. Accordingly, it decided to refer the matter to your
respected court to take what you deem appropriate in this regard.
