The entire ×¡×•×’×™× of מצוה ×œ×§×™×™× ×“×‘×¨×™ המת is a complicated one, and certainly cannot be covered, or even summarized, in one post. Here, I'm going to try and deal with a fairly limited aspect; specifically, the רמב"× in הלכות מכירה in פרק ×›"ב, הלכה ט"ו / ט"×–.

ח׳ כסלו תשס״ח - Sunday, November 18th, 2007Mechilah without a Kinyan with a Shtar
י״ח מרחשון תשס״ח - Tuesday, October 30th, 2007I must confess, this post is rather late. We first saw the קצוה"×— on which it's based last Thursday night, but until tonight (Mon), I didn't really have a clear enough understanding in everything to feel comfortable letting anyone see my (limited) understanding. Thanks to some clarifications in today's שיעור and a discussion with my חברות×, I now feel I understand this fairly well.
The שולחן ערוך writes that מחילה works without any ×§× ×™×™×Ÿ required. That is, if Reuven owes Shimon money, and wants to forgive the debt, he can do so without any formal מעשה ×§× ×™×™×Ÿ. There's a discussion amongst the ×¤×•×¡×§×™× whether this is true if Shimon has a שטר testifying to Reuven's deby.

י״א מרחשון תשס״ח - Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007Note: this post contains no original ideas, nor even any attempts at originality. Instead, it's simply my way of making sense of a complicated issue.
While we've seen the concept of מחוסר ××ž× ×” in the ×¤×•×¡×§×™× for two weeks already, yesterday was the first time we started looking into the גמר×. In brief, מחוסר ××ž× ×” is when two people reach a verbal agreement, and all the terms are agreed upon, but no money has been transfered (and obviously no ×§× ×™×™×Ÿ has been made). If one of them backs out at that point, he has done a Bad Thing™.

Kinyan after Nesinah
ט׳ מרחשון תשס״ח - Saturday, October 20th, 2007Last Thursday, we learned through (well, most of the way through) a קצות החושן, as per the normal Thursday night schedule. I just saw the × ×ª×™×‘×•×ª's response, and I admit, I'm a bit puzzled, and have a few questions (note: not that they're good questions; odds are I'm misunderstanding something). The post below summarizes the קצוה"×— as brought down in the × ×ª×™×‘×•×ª, which covers the main points.
