New Square, NY - The chief rabbi in a Hasidic village in New York has asked a court to throw out a civil lawsuit implicating him in the arson attack that badly burned a dissident member.
His lawyer says there’s no “factual basis” showing Grand Rabbe David Twersky directed the May 22 attack.
The Journal News says Attorney Franklyn Snitow moved Monday to have the $18 million lawsuit dismissed.
Plaintiff Aron Rottenberg claims Twersky targeted him because he began praying at another synagogue other than the village’s principal one.
