Question

I submitted a request for a benefit from National Insurance which was denied. The rejection notice stated that an appeal can be made in the labor court. Does this constitute going to secular courts?

Answer

Hello

Since they are not willing to adjudicate in a rabbinical court, it is permitted to appeal in a secular court.
