Q. My uncle married a woman. She became my aunt. I am now disqualified from testifying on her behalf. They had 3 children.
The couple divorced. Am I still disqualified from testifying on her behalf because her 3 children are still my 1st cousins and I may not testify on their behalf? Or since she is no longer married to my uncle, her children’s relationship to me is irrelevant, and I may testify on her behalf?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that you may testify after the divorce on her behalf and benefit, unless the testimony also directly benefits her children, since they are still related to you.
