One paper [introduced by defendants], entitled, “Burial of a Non Jewish Spouse and Children,” discusses conflicting rabbinical interpretations concerning whether Jews and non-Jews may be buried in the same cemetery, and specifically, whether a non-Jewish spouse or children of an interfaith marriage may be buried in a Jewish cemetery. The other paper, entitled “Peaceful Paths: Burial of Non-Jews in a Jewish Cemetery Following a Common Disaster,” acknowledges “the traditional ban on burial together of Jews and non-Jews,” but recognizes “special circumstances in which such burial may be permitted.”

Т.е. граждане принесли какую-то бумагу (реформистского, возможно, происхождения), что подобная практика не противоречит иудаизму (в одной из интерпретаций).
