Court rulings on matrimonial and monetary laws. Management of public institutions and letters requesting assistance for needy. Various testimonies regarding holocaust victims. Letters and memoranda regarding the Din Torah concerning the management of the Chayeh Olam Yeshiva.

Grand Court for all Ashkenazi Congregations is the veteran court of Rabbi Shmuel Salant which was established in 1841 and for many years was situated
in an office in the courtyard of the Churva synagogue. Rabbi Tzvi Pesach Frank was appointed as rabbinical judge during the lifetime of Rabbi Shmuel Salant, and was eventually appointed Av Beit Din. During the time of the documents in this archive, the rabbinical court was managed by Rabbi Avraham David Rosenthal (author of Be’er HaMelech and rabbi of the Sha’arei Chessed community).
