Frida Kauffmann, residing in Ramat Gan, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to life on behalf of her deceased husband Ernst Kauffmann, who died from health issues attributed to his persecution. Dr. Ernst Kauffmann, a former resident of Mannheim, Germany, was forced to emigrate to the Netherlands, where he was arrested on February 4, 1943, and deported to Westerbork and Bergen-Belsen concentration camps. Frida Kauffmann also continued her late husband's claims for harm to liberty, including for wearing the Yellow Badge in the Netherlands from May 2, 1942, and for forced confinement in an exchange camp in Philippeville, Algeria, until September 1945, as well as for harm to property. Compensation for harm to life was also sought by Dr. Kauffmann's children, Lea Babette Dasberger (née Kauffmann) and Bernhard Ferdinand Kauffmann. Dr. Ernst Kauffmann's first wife, Recha Erna Kauffmann (née Wolff), perished on January 25, 1945, from infection and malnutrition following her release from Bergen-Belsen. Dr. Ernst Kauffmann also filed a claim for harm to life after his mother, Recha Kauffmann. The claims for harm to life were rejected by the German authorities. Frida Kauffmann received a monthly widow's pension for her husband's professional damages. The United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Frankfurt am Main were involved in the case. The file mentions Dr. Kauffmann was part of an exchange transport from Bergen-Belsen in January 1945 and that some of his household goods were allegedly destroyed during Kristallnacht.
