Chazzan Accused of Paternity by Betrothed Woman

From: Rabbi Moshe Sofer

To: Rabbi Shlomo

Description

A chazzan is accused by a betrothed woman of fathering her child. The Chasam Sofer rules that her testimony alone cannot remove him mid-contract, but if witnesses confirm he stayed overnight at her home, he should not be rehired for a new term.
