Content: Michael Baumring, born on October 26, 1942, in Petach Tikva, Palestine (now Israel), sought compensation for harm to his education, represented by his father, Josef Baumring. The family resided in Givat Rambam, Israel. The claim was based on the premise that his father, who was persecuted and emigrated from Cologne, Germany in July 1935, could not afford his son's intended dentistry studies due to the financial consequences of persecution. Michael's mother, Grete Amalie Baumring (née Salm), had also emigrated from Neuss, Germany, in 1935 and had a separate claim. The claim for educational damages, filed under § 119 of the Federal Compensation Law (BEG) for a subsidy up to 5,000 DM, was dismissed by the Cologne Regional Court on July 1, 1959. The court ruled that the law did not apply to children born after their parents' persecution had ended, so Michael received no compensation. The United Restitution Organization (URO) in Tel Aviv and Cologne handled the case, and the Irgun Olej Merkas Europa provided a certificate detailing the family's financial hardship. His father's own claim was approved under Reg. Nr. ZK 615 859 from the district president Cologne.
