Question

Hello, Regarding carrying on Shabbat, 1. Is it prohibited to take an object that is in a public domain and move it within the public domain? 2. A person finds himself in a situation where his father-in-law took his daughter, who can walk on her own, along with a stroller — in a religious but not ultra-Orthodox city where he does not rely on the eruv, and the person comes to pick her up and the stroller is there. How should he act regarding the stroller? Can he move it in such a case in the public domain and bring it closer to the house where he is staying, to the stairwell? (in a building where no eruv chatzerot has been made)

Answer

Hello 

1. It is prohibited to carry four amot [approximately 2 meters] in a public domain. 

2. If one does not rely on the eruv, it is prohibited.
