Content: Erna Jelinek, residing in Tel Aviv, Israel, seeks restitution for jewelry and precious metals seized by the Prager Kreditbank in Ungarisch Hradisch, Moravia, in November 1939. Jelinek also seeks compensation for damage to property and assets. She emigrated with her husband, Otto Jelinek, and their two children, Lidia Schmolka and Silva Lee, via Prague and Trieste to Palestine on December 11, 1939. Otto Jelinek, her husband, was forced to close his spirits business and was forced to sell his soda water business. Otto Jelinek also had jewelry seized. Before the emigration, the family lived in Altstadt bei Ungarisch Hradisch, Moravia. The claim for restitution was rejected based on § 11a of the Federal Restitution Law (BRüG) and Article 1 Number 2 of the Fourth Law Amending the Federal Restitution Law. The family's compensation claim was processed under file number 116 876 by the Neustadt an der Weinstraße Wiedergutmachungsamt. The United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Berlin were involved in the case.
