MUNICH, (JTA) — The West
German Supreme Constitutional
Court, in what was described
here as a sensational move, has
ordered the provisional release
from jail of Dr. Aron Ohren-
stein, former Chief Rabbi of
Bavaria, pending determination
of whether his constitutional
rights had been infringed. The
Supreme Court sits in Karls-
ruhe.
The point at issue in the new
move is not directly concerned
with Dr. Ohrenstein's guilt or
innocence of charges involving
fraudulent certification of in-
demnification claims for appli-
cants supposedly residing at the
Wildflecken DP camp, for which
he had been sentenced to one
year's imprisonment in 1952.
- His defense attorneys argued
before the Supreme Court that,
when his sentence was, in the
main, confirmed by another Mu-
nich court in 1954, he had been
"deprived of his lawful judge."
The 1954 case against Dr.
Ohrenstein had been in the
hands of Dr. Josef Mulzer, a
notoriously Nazi - minded
judge, who also presided over
the trial of the Iate Dr. Philip
Auerbach, post-war leader of
German Jewry.
When Dr. Orhenstein charged
Judge Mulzer with prejudice,
the latter could not deny it and
disqualified himself. Although
he was thus no longer permit-
ted to deal with the case, he
went out of his way to assign
Judge Lochner to the trial, dis-
regarding the fact that two other
judges were next an the Munich
roster at that time.
In their pleas before the Su-
preme Constitutional Court, Dr.
Ohrenstein's attorneys argued
that their client had been en-
titled, under the German con-
stitution, to be tried by "his
lawful judge" and that he had
been deprived of his right
through the illegal intervention
of a disqualified judge and
through the assignment, with-
out sufficient reason, of a judge
who was not next on the duty
roster.
The Supreme Constitutional
Court has never before or-
dered that a prisoner be re-
leased from jail. That it did
so, a week after hearing the
defense attorneys, makes it
likely that it will, in the near
future, sustain the claim that
Dr. Ohrenstein Was "deprived
of his lawful judge."
Such a verdict will not acquit
him, since the German Supreme
Court had already confirmed
his conviction before the dis-
puted second trial. However, a
new trial will have to be held.
Dr. Ohrenstein was arrested
at the airport here nine weeks
ago, after boarding a plane
bound for Switzerland. He is a
46-year-old native of Poland,
who lived in Berlin before and
during the early years of the
Hitler regime.
He was appointed rabbi of
the Munich community and
"Chief Rabbi of Bavaria" in
1946, but his right to the title
of "rabbi" is in dispute. He has
been the storm center of Jewish
affairs in Munich for many
years.
