Decide the case/ to decide/ give judgement
To issue a final ruling; to definitively decide the halakhic or legal question before one.
("And therefore a court of law that has cut off the judgment and written, 'So and so, you are obligated to give to this person such and such'" - Rambam Hilchot Shemitah and Yovel, Chapter 9, and thus: "A warning that they should not follow the judgments of persons by a single judgment, this is "wrong", until the debtor has been liable for the debts for two years, but for a creditor you have the right to cut off the judgment by a multiple judgment. One, these are: "After many rabbis, they were inclined" - Rabbi B'Hayyim Shemot, chapter 23, and then: "And this man went and cut off her dina, which was that woman, to sit in Agunah all her days" - Agnon/ Elo and Elo, and the turn was to the right, 92, and then: "The ministers heard the arguments, and began to debate among themselves how to cut off the dina, the others were obliged "The Jew and the others will be destroyed" - Mordecai ben Yehezkel/ Book of Acts, Part Four, The Faithful, 242)
