NO SUBSTITUTE BEIS DIN IS ALLOWED
Tomorrow the 6th of August/10th of Av - Yoel Weiss has offered to give his wife Rivky a get if she shows up at the address of the Mill Basin Beis Din listed on the siruv that they issued him. But that offers is only if the same dayanim who signed on the siruv, write the get and obviously only if these dayanim are recognized as competent to write Gittin. For some unknown reason, Rivky has not responded to Yoel's offer - for 19 days so far - that she agrees to his terms and will show up.
However she has posted on her facebook page that she will show up with a gathering of Rabbis - no mention of the Original Mill Basin Three. She will be very disappointed if she insists on a Get without showing that her original Mill Basin Basin is a valid and an authoritative beis din. Trying to shame Yoel into using a substitute beis din is not going to work. Hopefully things will go as Yoel planned and she will be able to receive her Get.

=========================================
Rivky Stein has posted the following statement, about an hour ago, on her facebook page:
"Today is a day of great mourning for the Jewish people. May tomorrow be a day of great celebration!
Friends and supporters of Rivky: It is appropriate that immediately following Tisha B'Av, we are asking you to join us at a small, but important gathering at 1278 E 72nd Street in Brooklyn, which is the Beit Din of Mill Basin and Marine Park where Yoel Weiss agreed to show up for the intention of giving Rivky Stein, his estranged wife, a Get.
Please plan to be there by 11:45 AM. We have convened a gathering of rabbis. Yoel has boasted that he will provide the Get. We say: Bring it On.
Yoel Weiss: Be a Mensch. Give your wife a Get, with no strings attached. May we be privileged to witness this event."
The language seems clear that she is admitting the "beit din" "dayanim" were fake and that she is now "convening a gathering of rabbis" who are not the signors of the so-called beit din documents supposedly sent to Yoeli. This is a complete disregard of Yoelis offer made right from the get-go. It has to be the same beit din dayanim showing they are real and this wasn't a farce by Rivky Stein and her cohorts. Suddenly in her new statement she is demanding that Yoeli drop the condition this was always based on.
Stein's above statement is also soliciting as many people to show up to that address to support her. I think it is vital for Yoeli to also bring a large contingent supporting him there tomorrow (with recording equipment.)
[The original post on her facebook also said "Please note that if Yoel is playing games, it might be necessary to relocate to A SECOND location just 5 blocks away at 1278 E 77nd Street." This sentence was edited off [but is still visible if you click the "EDITED" link on top of the post.]
If the original beit din was a fake, then even she will have to admit he is under no requirement to give a Get as no beit din has been requested to give a Get or ordered him to. He is still entitled to have a beis din case between him and her to determine if a Get is warranted. A husband is not under any halachic requirement to give a Get unless and until a beis din orders as such after hearing testimony from both sides and considering the facts and determining the halacha based on that. And that certainly takes quite some time for a beis din to make a determination. Of course Stein is entitled to have a beis din case with Weiss once a beis din is agreed upon per halacha
