Court record in Hebrew. Location: Jerusalem. Dated: Wednesday, 26 Nisan 5285 AM = 19 April 1525 CE. Signed by three known figures: Yisraʾel b. Yeḥiel, Avraham ha-Levi, and Yosef Kolon b. Pereṣ. The document contains several testimonies, the first by our master the Rav Beirav. He was active in Egypt, 3 years prior, in commerce in raisins, and because of a debt of 300 ducats he was arrested and thrown in jail. The other testimonies relates to Avraham b. Hayyim who was the father in law of Yiṣḥaq Sholal the Nagid. From another testimony we hear that a minister called Badrī locked the Nagid and other Jews in his home for a debt and for "hiding the money." (Information in part from Avraham David via FGP.) AA
