# Rav Shimon ben Tzemach Duran, known as Rashbesh for his name and Tashbetz for his Sefer, was a Talmid of R' Ephraim Vidal, who was a Talmid of the [[Ran]]. He fled Spain to Algeria because of an expulsion.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 169). The Chida notes how some did not know that the Tashbetz and Rav Duran were the same person.</ref>
# The [[Kenesset HaGedolah]] recommends following the Tashbetz over the [[Rashba]], as he came later.<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei Shear Mechabrim 29)</ref> On the other hand, the Beit David<ref>Shu"t Beit David Yoreh Deah 133</ref> advises following the Tashbetz over the [[Terumat HaDeshen]], even though the latter was later and deserves much honor, because the Tashbetz was simply much greater.<ref>See the relevant Shem HaGedolim entries.</ref>
# The Rashbet's son, Shlomo, known as the [[Rashbash]] wrote his own responsa, and he had two sons, Shimon and Tzemach, who are quoted here and there by the [[Beit Yosef]].<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Sefarim, Yud 29)</ref>
