Se’if 1א׳

זָרַק לָהּ הַגֵּט בַּחֲצֵרָהּ, בֵּין שֶׁהוּא קָנוּי לָהּ אוֹ שָׁאוּל אוֹ מֻשְׂכָּר, הֲרֵי זוֹ מְגֹרֶשֶׁת. בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים, כְּשֶׁהִיא עוֹמֶדֶת בַּחֲצֵרָהּ וְהוּא מִשְׁתַּמֵּר לְדַעְתָּהּ, אֲבָל אִם אֵינָהּ עוֹמֶדֶת שָׁם, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא מִשְׁתַּמֵּר לְדַעְתָּהּ, אֵינָהּ מְגֹרֶשֶׁת:

If he threw her the divorce document into her courtyard, whether it belonged to her or was lent or leased, she is divorced. Under what conditions? that she is standing in her courtyard and it is preserved to her knowledge; but if she is not standing there, even if it is preserved to her knowledge, she is not divorced.

Se’if 2ב׳

אִם נָתַן בַּחֲצֵרָהּ, וְאַחַר כָּךְ בָּא שָׁם וְאָמַר לָהּ: הֲרֵי זֶה גִּטֵּךְ, יֵשׁ מִי שֶׁכָּתַב, שֶׁאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהַגֵּט עֲדַיִן שָׁם אֵינָהּ מְגֹרֶשֶׁת, עַד שֶׁתִּטְּלֶנּוּ מִשָּׁם אוֹ עַד שֶׁיִּטְּלֶנּוּ מִשָּׁם וְיִתְּנֶנּוּ לָהּ לְהִתְגָּרֵשׁ בּוֹ, דְּבָעֵינָן שֶׁתְּהֵא סְמוּכָה לֶחָצֵר בִּשְׁעַת נְתִינַת הַגֵּט לְתוֹכוֹ וּבְשָׁעָה שֶׁאוֹמֵר לָהּ הֵא גִּטֵּךְ. וְכֵן בְּגִטָּהּ וַחֲצֵרָהּ בָּאִים כְּאֶחָד, בָּעֵינָן שֶׁעוֹמֶדֶת בְּצַד הֶחָצֵר בִּשְׁעַת נְתִינָה; וְיֵשׁ חוֹלְקִין:

If he placed [the bill of divorce] in her yard, and subsequently went there and told her "here is your *get* [bill of divorce]," there is one who wrote that even if the *get* is still there, she is not divorced until she picks it up from there, or until he picks it up from there and gives it to her to be divorced by it, since we require that she be near the yard at the time of the placement of the *get* into it, and at the time that he tells her "here is your *get*." And similarly, when her *get* and her yard come at once, we require her to stand at the side of the yard at the time of the placement. And there are those who disagree.

Se’if 3ג׳

נְתָנוֹ בַּחֲצֵרָהּ, שֶׁלֹּא מִדַּעְתָּהּ, וְאֵינָהּ עוֹמֶדֶת בְּצַד חֲצֵרָהּ, הֲרֵי זוֹ סְפֵק מְגֹרֶשֶׁת:

If he placed [the bill of divorce] in her yard without her intent, and she was not standing on the side of her yard, she is considered doubtfully divorced.
