Ritual
The JCGC Code of Regulations affirms that the status quo will be maintained with respect to all halachic rules and ritual observed in the cemeteries at the time they merged into JCGC. The ritual governance of all cemeteries owned or operated by JCGC will be overseen by a Ritual Coordination Committee comprised primarily of Rabbis in the community. There will be three subcommittees, Orthodox, Conservative and Reform, with each subcommittee overseeing the halacha that will prevail in the Orthodox, Conservative and Reform cemeteries (or sections), respectively. Halachic rules and ritual that apply to the Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox cemeteries, respectively, are as follows.
