משמעות יאוש בגזילה  Bava Kamma 111b

source sheet

Ownership is both physical and mental/emotional according to halakhah. This can be seen through examples in which an owner’s mental relationship to an object has changed. In this shiur, we will examine the case of יאוש as just such an example. The despair (יאוש) experienced by those who have had something stolen from them impacts the halakhic status of that item. In this shiur, we examine why this is the case and what that impact is.
