Simon Oppenheimer residing in Kiryat Bialik, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to profession during the Nazi era, previously belonging to himself. Simon Oppenheimer was a welfare worker for the city of Berlin from September 1925 until he was dismissed on June 30, 1933, due to his Jewish origin. He immigrated to Palestine in October 1933 with his wife and two children. After his emigration, he lived in a kibbutz and later took on various odd jobs. In November 1940, he joined the British Army. On April 29, 1941, he was captured and held as a German prisoner of war until his liberation by American forces on April 29, 1945. After the war, he resumed his work as a welfare worker in Palestine/Israel. A restitution decision of June 30, 1956, granted him a pension effective from April 1, 1951, under the BWGÖD. A further decision of November 4, 1957, recognized the period from July 1, 1933, to October 31, 1940, as a time of severe economic hardship due to persecution, which was credited towards his pensionable service time. Following a settlement on July 16, 1965, his pension was recalculated based on a higher salary group. The United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv, Berlin, and Haifa were involved in handling the case. The Irgun Olej Merkaz Europa (IOME) provided a certificate of need for the applicant, citing health issues his wife was experiencing.
