High Court Ruling Made On Marriages Jerusalem (JTA) — In a break- through decision, the High Court of Justice has ruled that Israel must recognize civil marriages, including intermarriages, of Is- raelis and other nationals that are performed in foreign con- sulates. The ruling came in response to a petition filed by the Israel Religious Action Center of the Israel Movement for Progressive Judaism, Israel's equivalent of the Reform movement. The movement has called the decision the latest step "toward the breaking up of the Orthodox monopoly in Israel." "Until we have an overall change in the system to open up free choice in matters of marriage and divorce, we hope that this partial solution will pave the way for additional ways of being mar- ried in Israel," said Rabbi Uri Regev, director of the Religious Action Center in Israel. The Orthodox, for their part, are fighting the reformers in the political arena. The Labor Party has been try- ing for months to woo the fer- vently Orthodox Sephardic Shas Party back into the Labor-led governing coalition. But Shas is now stipulating that it will rejoin the coalition only if Labor guarantees it will maintain the religious status quo and uphold the supremacy of Jewish law in the face of chal- lenges brought before the High Court. The Religious Action Center petition was filed on behalf of a Brazilian couple married in November 1990 in the Brazilian Embassy. The wife, Eva Goldstein, was a Christian who married. Uri Goldstein, a recent Jewish im- migrant who had retained his Brazilian citizenship. They chose to be married at the Brazilian Embassy because Jewish law in Israel dictates that only Jews may be married under Jewish law. Since the British Mandate, for- eign consulates have had the au-
