daf bit: Ketubot 10

We learn from the mishna: a maiden's ketubah -- that is, the amount she is due should the marriage end -- is 200 zuz, while a widow's is a maneh (100 zuz). What of a maiden who is a widow (that is, one who was betrothed but he died before their wedding day), or who is divorced, or who was released from a levirate marriage? Her ketubah is also 200 zuz, and he can bring a charge of non-virginity. (10b)

We learned from the first mishna of this tractate, which I wrote about last week, that a man who finds that his wife wasn't actually a virgin after all (but said she was) can go to the court the next morning. This is because of the difference in the financial obligation for these two cases.
