“The Rebbe is a pious, peace loving person who would never violate a single ruling of the Shulchan Aruch. It disturbed him to no end that in violation of halacha one of his shtieblech somehow got entangled in a federal lawsuit against a Chassidic village. The Rebbe made it known that under no circumstances will he ever allow one of his congregations to be a named plaintiff in the KJ lawsuit. ‘If anyone has any grievances,’ the Rebbe said, ‘then they should seek to resolve them in a din Torah."
Accoding to Ami Magazine as cited by VIN:
…Congregation TA is a Toldos Aharon affiliated religious corporation, which operates a shteibel in Kiryas Joel. When the Toldos Aharon Rebbe learned that a congregation associated with his movement had unwittingly joined a lawsuit against Kiryas Joel, the Rebbe was adamant that it withdraw from the suit forthwith.
Rav Aharon Samet, one of the Toldos Aharon Rebbe’s aides told Ami: “The Rebbe is a pious, peace loving person who would never violate a single ruling of the Shulchan Aruch. It disturbed him to no end that in violation of halacha one of his shtieblech somehow got entangled in a federal lawsuit against a Chassidic village. The Rebbe made it known that under no circumstances will he ever allow one of his congregations to be a named plaintiff in the KJ lawsuit. ‘If anyone has any grievances,’ the Rebbe said, ‘then they should seek to resolve them in a din Torah.’…
The lawsuit alleges that Kiryas Joel uses its government resources to discriminate against religious dissidents and to unconstitutionally enforce religious laws.
The suit calls for the dissolution of Kiryas Joel.
