Question
In the ketubah of a woman who has two names and a nickname that everyone uses, the names were written in sequence without indicating that the nickname is not her name. What should be done?
Answer
Shalom Rav
This is considered a mistake in the ketubah, and a ketubah in which an error is found must be written.
