Title A name given to the resource 1762/07 - David ben Raphael Meldola Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1762 PEH Responsa Hirsch Summary In the case presented by Jacob ben Salomo de Meza, two orphans, a boy and a girl, had been appointed guardians by the Beth-Din. One guardian accompanied the girl to Palestine, where she later married her cousin. The girl's father-in-law then asked the guardian to provide a detailed accounting of the funds and property of the orphans. The guardian, however, did not feel obligated to do so, since the other guardian was located far away. David ben Raphael Meldola ruled that the guardian was not legally required to provide a detailed accounting unless it was necessary to ensure the proper distribution of the orphans' property. He clarified that the guardian was not obligated to give an accounting, but it would be praiseworthy for him to do so voluntarily. Additionally, the guardian could swear that the assets of the orphans had been properly distributed and managed. Thus, while the guardian was not required to provide an accounting by law, it would be a commendable act if he chose to do so, and he could swear an oath to confirm that the funds had been properly handled.
