including Rabbi Shlomo Riskin,
chief rabbi of Efrat in the West
Bank, who said that annulment
should only be used as a last resort.
"To nullify retroactively casts
aspersions on every marital relation-
ship," said Rabbi Riskin, founding
rabbi of Manhattan's Lincoln
Square Synagogue. "Neither do I
believe that if a husband acts dis-
agreeably, the marriage was not a

Rabbi Saul Berman, director of
Edah, a New York-based, modern
Orthodoxy advocacy organization,
said that a fact-finding process
must be instituted to determine
the gravity of pre-existing factors,
while studying how consent
could
be affected by the passage of time.
"These are line-drawing factors,"
said Rabbi Berman, who encouraged
open debate. "The Halachah [Jewish
law] has never wanted to create a cir-
cumstance in which all marriages are
subject to annulment because in all
marriages there are elements of pre-
existing qualities that were
unknown. But we need to support
the beit din but to make sure its
fact-finding process is absolutely
clear and [conducted] with perfect
integrity."
