| − | * A person that commits a sin deserving of both death and a monetary payment is absolved from having to give the monetary payment since he receives the greater of the two punishments - death. Therefore a person who ignites another's property on fire during the Shabbot, does not have to pay for the damage he caused since for the same act he receives the death penalty. According to Rabbi Nechunya ben HaKane this is true regardless if the death sentence is to be executed by the Sanhedrin or if the sin is just deserving of Death from Heaven. This would make the situation applicable even in the case where the above example was carried out on Yom Kippor.<ref>Talmud Bavli, Pesachim 29A</ref>
