Quoting%20commentary for Ketubot 4:2

הַמְאָרֵס אֶת בִּתּוֹ, וְגֵרְשָׁהּ, אֵרְסָהּ וְנִתְאַרְמְלָה, כְּתֻבָּתָהּ שֶׁלּוֹ. הִשִּׂיאָהּ וְגֵרְשָׁהּ, הִשִּׂיאָהּ וְנִתְאַרְמְלָה, כְּתֻבָּתָהּ שֶׁלָּהּ. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, הָרִאשׁוֹנָה שֶׁל אָב. אָמְרוּ לוֹ, מִשֶּׁהִשִּׂיאָהּ, אֵין לְאָבִיהָ רְשׁוּת בָּהּ:

If one betrothed his daughter and she were divorced, and he betrothed her and she were widowed, her kethubah, [which she claims from both of these betrothals] belongs to him, (this tanna) holding that there is a kethubah for a betrothed woman, and we are speaking of the period when she is a na'arah (or when she is a minor. If he married her and she were divorced; and he married her and she were widowed, her kethubah belongs to her. [For after he married her, his authority over her lapsed, and we follow (the time of) collection, which came afterwards. We do not follow the (time of the) writing, to say that since the first (kethubah) was written while she was yet under her father's domain, the kethubah belongs to her father.] R. Yehudah says: The first one belongs to her father, [R. Yehudah holding that we follow the (time of the) writing, and that since the first kethubah was written before the marriage, when she was still under her father's domain, it belongs to her father. The halachah is not in accordance with R. Yehudah.]
