This article analyzes the judicial process initiated in 1465 by Aharón Farh against Aharón Çarfatí and his son Shelomó, both Jews from Zaragoza. They were accused of not complying with the will granted by Ya‘aqob Çarfatí in 1451 in which, except for some legacy in favour of his nephew, established his widow, Nadefa Farh, as the universal heir, who was also sister of the plaintiff. Aharón Çarfatí, who ignored an arbitral judgment/sentence given in 1454, which declared a donation as null made in favour of his son, thus infringing the will, which forces legitimate heirs a judicial complaint with the berurim of the aljama, used in trial on first appeal in the Royal Court. All these actions confirm the validity of the axiom dina’ demalkhuta’ dina’; while the plaintiff, ratione personae, i.e. using subjective elements (both plaintiffs are Jewish), required further rabbinical jurisdiction, the defendant, ratione materiae, wanted the Aragonese Laws to apply, known as the Fueros of Aragon, citing objective elements (civil law of the Kingdom).

The main objective of this thesis is to analyze the converted Jew Portuguese group within the Inquisition Tribunal of Córdoba during the 16th and 17th centuries. Our purpose is to study the members of this group from different prisms; not just based on the prosecution which some of them were subjected to by the feared institution. Thus, their social-economic reality will be tackled alongside with the inquisitorial procedures. Regarding methodology, on a first stage this study carries out a bibliographical revision about the subject, paying special attention to the historiographical advancements that have been achieved in recent years. Then, throughout different archive sources, and with a bigger impact highlighting the notary protocols, we delve into the economic activity of the new Lusitanian Christians settled in the district. For some of the more prominent lineages, we have been able to approach genealogical reconstructions which allow us to understand better their marriage strategies, struggles, inquisitorial trances, and despite all of this, a remarkable social ascension. The present pages intend to delve deeper into the mechanisms that the members of this minority carried out to integrate themselves within the rest of the society, as well as into the individual features and traits that defined and differentiatedthem. Several early interpretations about this social subject will be presented, accompanied by various statistic bases to value the impact that this immigration had on the subject of study.
