Ludwig Gutmann, residing in Even Yehuda, Israel, sought compensation for various Nazi-era damages. These included harm to his profession as a self-employed businessman in the sack and barrel wholesale trade, loss of household items due to looting and destruction in Nuremberg during Kristallnacht on November 9/10, 1938, and punitive taxes paid like Judenvermögensabgabe and Ausfuhr-Förderungsfond. He also claimed for transfer loss, harm to property (goodwill), and the revocation of his war-disability pension. Ludwig Gutmann had served in the Bavarian troops from 1916 to 1918 during World War I, where he was severely wounded and lost his right eye. Until 1938, he owned his father's business in Nuremberg. He emigrated from Germany on January 30, 1939, traveling via Paris and Trieste, and arrived in Palestine on March 5, 1939. In Israel, he initially worked as an agricultural laborer before establishing a chicken farm in 1940. He also claimed compensation for harm to health suffered presumably as a result of the forced emigration hardships. His mother, Friederike Gutmann, perished in Paris in 1942 from an unknown cause. Through court settlements, Ludwig Gutmann was awarded DM 5,000 for household losses, DM 660 for Judenvermögensabgabe, DM 30,240 plus an additional DM 7,560 for harm to his profession, DM 550 for emigration costs, and DM 1,200 for the export promotion levy. The case was handled by the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Munich, with the Irgun Olej Merkaz Europa providing a certificate of need.
