Responsa על יבמות 132:4
Teshuvot Maharam
Q. A sold his immovable property. Do the protests of A's wife invalidate such sale [since his wife's ketubah is a lien upon his real estate]?
A. If the property was set aside by A to be used in payment of his wife's ketubah in case of divorce or his death, or, if it originally formed part of the wife's dowry, the sale is invalid. Otherwise the sale is valid until A's death, or until A divorces his wife, at which time the latter will be permitted to seize such property in payment of her ketubah.
