Atara Lefkowitz, residing in Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel, seeks compensation for damage to her profession as a businesswoman in Bratislava, Slovakia, due to the boycott and harassment she faced, forcing her to close her family's grocery store and emigrate in September 1938. She arrived in Palestine on September 20, 1938. Her father, Pinchas Philipp Fischmann, perished during the Holocaust. Compensation also sought for harm to liberty. Atara Lefkowitz's husband, William Lefkowitz, owned the grocery store after their marriage. Multiple restitution claims also submitted. She was awarded DM 8,000 in compensation for damage to her profession as part of a settlement reached at the Higher Regional Court of Zweibrücken on September 28, 1966. The case, processed according to Paragraph 150 BEG, was initially dismissed by the Lower Regional Court but successfully appealed. The United Restitution Organization offices in Tel Aviv, Frankfurt, and Berlin, along with their lawyer Otto Küster in Stuttgart, worked on the case.
