Question

Hello Rabbi, I saw that recently there was a question about whether a smartphone owner is kosher for testimony. At our wedding, there were 2 witnesses: one kosher and recognized as a talmid chacham, the second was a married man, a baal teshuva for over 20 years, dressed as a Haredi in every respect but holding a non-kosher phone, I don't know if it's protected... Are the ketubah and the testimony invalid? Thank you.

Answer

Hello, 

It is assumed that a person recognized as God-fearing has a protected device.

The testimony and the ketubah are valid.
