The next verse goes into that:
[Shakir 4:35] And if you fear a breach between the two, then appoint judge from his people and a judge from her people; if they both desire agreement, Allah will effect harmony between them, surely Allah is Knowing, Aware.
That is they were suppose to go the Prophet (who ruled the believers per that time), and he was suppose to see what's going on, and appoint a judge from her side and from his side, the word people can perhaps better be translated as "family" here.
