Ella Ravina, née Pollak, a former piano teacher from Prague, Czechoslovakia, residing in Tel Aviv, Israel, sought compensation for harm to liberty, harm to profession, and harm to health. During the Nazi era, she was forced to wear the Yellow Badge from September 19, 1941, to January 30, 1942, before being deported to Theresienstadt ghetto, and subsequently to Auschwitz, Oederan, and Flossenbürg concentration camps, where she was liberated. After the war, she returned to Prague and worked as a music teacher before immigrating to Israel in 1949.
Ella Ravina also sought compensation for harm to life suffered by her husband, Karl Pollak, who was deported to Auschwitz and then to the Dachau/Kaufering concentration camp, where he perished on March 9, 1945.
Based on a court settlement classifying her late husband in the higher civil service category, she was awarded a capital compensation of DM 9,468 for the period from January 1, 1949, to December 31, 1951, of which DM 2,268 was paid after deductions. Her widow's pension was terminated on December 31, 1951, due to remarriage, but was reinstated at DM 422 per month following her divorce on August 8, 1961, with a back payment of DM 4,220. This was later adjusted to DM 380 per month.
For her own persecution, she received DM 5,850 for 39 months of imprisonment and DM 600 for wearing the Yellow Badge. For health issues, based on §28 and §29 BEG, she was granted a capital compensation of DM 10,596.80, a pension back payment of DM 18,630, and a monthly pension of DM 210 starting from October 1962.
The case involved correspondence between the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel-Aviv, Frankfurt/Main, Berlin, and New York, with a social report from the Irgun Olei Merkaz Europa. Contains mention of piano.
