Applicant Ruth Zur (née Hirsch), residing in Tel Aviv, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to her education, which was interrupted due to Nazi persecution before her emigration to Palestine in August 1938. Compensation is also sought for health issues she suffered as a result of being forced into heavy agricultural labor after her emigration. The applicant also seeks compensation for harm to liberty suffered by her maternal grandfather, Israel Andorn, who was forced to wear the Yellow Badge in Frankfurt am Main from September 19, 1941, and was deported to Theresienstadt on August 18, 1942, where he perished on December 4, 1942. Additionally, compensation is sought for harm to his profession and for the loss of a life insurance policy. A restitution claim was also filed for real estate in Gemünden an der Wohra that previously belonged to her grandfather.
The applicant's sister, Ilse Hirsch, was deported during the Holocaust. Her mother, Bertha Bella Hirsch (née Andorn), was also a victim of Nazi persecution.
The applicant, Ruth Hirsch, was born on September 22, 1922, in Gemünden an der Wohra. She began an apprenticeship at the Max Warburg nursery in Hamburg-Blankenese but was forced to abandon her studies in 1938 because Jews were no longer allowed to take journeyman and master craftsman examinations. She emigrated to Palestine in August 1938 with the help of the Youth Aliyah. Her first husband, Hans Ulrich Süssmann, was killed in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
Based on a decision from April 17, 1958, the applicant received a compensation of DM 5,000 for damage to her professional training. A decision from January 15, 1959, awarded her compensation of DM 2,100 for the harm to her grandfather's liberty.
The United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Frankfurt am Main were involved in the case. The Jüdische Gemeinde Frankfurt am Main provided a certificate regarding the deportation of the applicant's grandfather.
