Supreme Court Associate Justices Brett M. Kavanaugh, Neil M. Gorsuch, and Elena Kagan, and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., February 4, 2020.
The US Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled unanimously against the heirs of Jewish art dealers Sammy Rosenberg, Isaak Rosenbaum, Julius Falk Goldschmidt, and Zacharias Hackenbroch from Frankfurt, who sought to sue Germany in US courts to retrieve the Guelph Treasure, worth about $260 million, which they say the dealers were forced to sell to the Nazis for half their value.
In 1929, a consortium of German-Jewish art dealers purchased for 7.5 million Reichsmarks the Welfenschatz, a.k.a. Guelph Treasure, only to be forced later by agents of Hermann Goering to give it up so the Reichsmarschall could personally present it as a gift to Hitler, according to the Jewish heirs.
To say that 2020 was “a year like no other” wouldn’t adequately describe these past twelve months. The year began with my bold efforts to expand our relationships with business partners and associates through creative events and venues. We had many ideas that we were eagerly anxious to deploy in the months ahead.
Our first endeavor was as the platinum sponsor of the Greater Bergen Board of Realtors Circle of Excellence celebration held at MetLife Stadium. The event recognized the elite real estate agents of Bergen, Hudson, and Passaic Counties in New Jersey. Walking on the field and networking with new and old agents was a mesmerizing experience that I didn’t realize would indeed be so cherished. I was one of the last people remaining as I dismantled our booth, looking at the big empty field, not knowing that all sporting fields and stadiums would soon become deserted.
