Ester Rubinstein, residing in Tel Aviv, Israel, sought restitution for precious metal items, jewelry, fur coats, carpets, a radio, and typewriters seized in Kaunas, Lithuania. The items belonged to herself and her late husband, Wiljam Ginzburg, who perished in the Dachau concentration camp on February 8, 1945. During the Nazi era, Ester Rubinstein was confined to the Kaunas ghetto starting in August 1941. After the war, she married Ruben Rubinstein on January 25, 1947, in Eresing, Bavaria. Based on the Federal Restitution Law (BRüG), a settlement was reached for precious metal items and jewelry, resulting in a payment of DM 4,355, and a separate settlement for fur coats resulted in a payment of DM 2,150; the claims for carpets and a radio were withdrawn. The case was handled by the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Berlin, with correspondence also involving the World Jewish Congress in New York.
