The file contains five circulars (“Rundschreiben”) by the United Restitution Organization (Frankfurt) ranging between January and March 1968. The circulars include the following issues: no. 1533, no. 1532, no. 1531, no. 1530, and no. 1547. They mainly deal with recent court judgements made by the German Federal Court (Bundesgerichtshof) on questions of restitution after Nazi persecution, especially regarding juridical regulations and procedures for various health damages due to Nazi persecution, for instance: the question of the actual relation between health damages and persecution and the problem of psychological long-term effects. The topics include: „Gesundheitsschaden, hier: verfolgungsbedingte und verfolgungsunabhängige Verursachung“ and „Gesundheitsschaden, hier: Hundertsatz der nach den Eltern eingestuften Ehefrau“, but also: „Gesundheitsschaden/Heilverfahren“ and „Gesundheitsschäden, hier: psychische Spätschäden“.
