[Avodah] forcing a GET

[T613K at aol.com]

Letter from R' Dovid Eidensohn warning that certain types of  activity that 
are becoming more common in the US, actions intended to  help agunos -- 
namely, certain kinds of public pressure on husbands to  give a GET (including 
ostracizing and public humiliation) -- may  result in gitten that are 
halachically invalid, may be halachically forbidden,  and also may be damaging to 
the innocent children of the men involved.  He  suggests that other methods 
of applying pressure and persuasion, though more  difficult and 
time-consuming for the rabbanim involved, may ultimately have  better results for all 
concerned.
