Reference for Gittin 65:11

ת"ר אמר לעשרה כתבו גט לאשתי יכול לבטל זה שלא בפני זה דברי רבי רשב"ג אומר אינו יכול לבטל אלא זה בפני זה

And is it possible then, that where a Get is according to the Written Law cancelled we should, to save the authority of the <i>Beth din</i>, [declare it valid and] so allow a married woman to marry another? — Yes. When a man betroths a woman, he does so under the conditions laid down by the Rabbis, and in this case the Rabbis annul his betrothal. Said Rabina to R. Ashi: This is quite right if the husband had originally betrothed his wife with money.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Because the Beth din can declare the money he gave her as kiddushin, public property (hefker,) v. infra 36b. ');"><sup>10</sup></span>
