With regard to the pending case Prenzlau against Behrens and Lundin I do not intend to approach the economic adviser of the Gau for the time being, seeing from the documents that the ultimate beneficiary of the claim—the son of the plaintiff—emigrated in the year 1938 and his property has therefore surely been confiscated. I fail to understand why the court granted Armenrecht to the assignee, a Jew, without first consulting the authority for sequestration of property. The cession most probably will become meaningless as it was transferred in trusteeship by the son to the father shortly before his emigration.

Please discuss the matter with the judge.
