הלכות יבוםLaws of Yibbum· siman 168

Se’if 1א׳

מִשֶּׁיִּבֵּם הַיָּבָם אֶת הַיְבָמָה, הֲרֵי הִיא כְּאִשְׁתּוֹ לְכָל דָּבָר, שֶׁיָּכוֹל לְהוֹצִיאָהּ בְּגֵט וְיָכוֹל לְהַחֲזִירָהּ:

When a man performs levirate marriage with his sister-in-law she is married to him in every respect; he ma divorce her a writ of divorce and subsequently remarry her.

Se’if 2ב׳

גֵּרְשָׁהּ וְהֶחֱזִירָהּ קֹדֶם שֶׁפָּרַע לָהּ כְּתֻבָּתָהּ, דִּינָהּ כְּאִשָּׁה אַחֶרֶת שֶׁגֵּרְשָׁהּ וְהֶחֱזִירָהּ, שֶׁאֵין לָהּ אֶלָּא כְּתֻבָּה אַחַת:

If he divorced her and accepted her back before he paid her ketubbah to her, she is considered as any other woman who was divorced and subsequently remarried [to the same man], that is, she only has one Ketubah.

Se’if 3ג׳

יְבָמָה, כְּתֻבָּתָהּ עַל נִכְסֵי בַּעְלָהּ הָרִאשׁוֹן. לְפִיכָךְ, אֵין הַיָּבָם רַשַּׁאי לִמְכֹּר כְּלוּם מִכָּל נִכְסֵי אָחִיו. וְאִם מָכַר אוֹ נָתַן מַתָּנָה, אוֹ חָלַק עִם אֶחָיו בִּנִכְסֵי הַמֵּת, בֵּין קֹדֶם יִבּוּם בֵּין אַחַר יִבּוּם, לֹא עָשָׂה כְּלוּם:

A yevamah, the responsibility for her ketubah is on her first husband's estate. Therefore, the yavam is not allowed to sell any of his brother's property. And if he sold or gave part away as a present, or divided some of the dead brother's property with the other brothers, whether before or after yibbum, he has done nothing.
