The file contains five circulars (“Rundschreiben”) by the United Restitution Organization (Frankfurt) between August and December 1969. The circulars include the following issues: no. 1633, no. 1632, no. 1631, no. 1627, and no. 1626. They mainly deal with recent court judgements made by the German Federal Court (Bundesgerichtshof) on questions of restitution after Nazi persecution, especially regarding newly established juridical regulations and proceedings for claims within the Federal law for restitution („Bundesentschädigungsgesetz”), and regarding pensions, professional damages and damages to life, and the status of being recognized as a refugee. The topics include: „Rentenkonkurrenz und Freibeträge“, „Berufsschaden, hier: 20%ige Zuschlag“, „Schaden an Leben, hier: Berechnung des Hundertsatzes“, „Flüchtlingseigenschaft, hier: Bescheinigung der IRO“, „Auslegung des Art. III Nr. 8 Abs. 2 SchlußG“.
