Hermann Oppenheimer, a mechanic residing in Kiryat Benjamin, Israel, who emigrated to Palestine on February 19, 1934, sought restitution and compensation for losses suffered by his mother, Hannchen Oppenheimer. The claims included restitution for household items (including impressionists paintings), precious metal items and jewelry, a confiscated shipment (lift), and a seized bank account, as well as compensation for punitive taxes like the Judenvermögensabgabe and Golddiskontabgabe, and for household furnishings destroyed during the Kristallnacht pogrom on November 10, 1938. Compensation also sought for harm to freedom suffered as Hannchen Oppenheimer was forced to wear the Jewish star and was deported from Nuremberg to Izbica, Poland, on March 24, 1942; she went missing and was officially declared dead as of May 8, 1945. File also mentions separate restitution claim for the house sold by Hannchen under duress in 1938. Following Hermann's death on December 18, 1950, his widow, Karola Oppenheimer (later Lucas), and his son, Kurt Dagobert Oppenheimer (later David Ophir), continued the claims as his heirs. David's uncle Walter Oppenheimer was one of the co-heirs and also filed own compensation claim. The case was handled by the Keren Kajemeth Leisrael (KKL) and involved correspondence between URO offices in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Munich. Hannchen's husband, Max Oppenheimer, had died on March 5, 1933, in Ellingen bei Nuernberg, Germany. The heirs were awarded compensation of DM 1,650 for harm to liberty for the period of September 19, 1941, to August 31, 1942, DM 266 for moving costs, and a further DM 500 for damage to property. Contains mention of art (original paintings, porcellain).
