The judge had come to what he thought was the end of a settlement conference regarding a young orthodox Jewish couple who were getting a divorce. When all appeared to be settled he asked "Is there anything else?" The wife replied, "Yes! I need a 'get'." "What?" said the Judge. At that point the husband's attorney explained 'get' was a Jewish divorce and that his client had no objection of including that in the Judgment Of Divorce. The soon to be ex-wife, realizing the Judge's lack of knowledge regarding the Jewish religion asked, "Judge, do you know the difference between a get and a bris?" "No," said the Judge, "What is the difference?" "With a 'get'," she explained "You get rid of the whole schmuck." |
