8 J 35/43

1. Letter to be written: To the Chief Prosecutor of the Upper District Court in Munich.

According to the State Police Headquarters in Munich, in the criminal proceedings against Scholl et al which were carried out on February 22, 1943 by the People’s Court at the Palace of Justice in Munich, a large number of evidentiary exhibits – including a portable Remington typewriter – were delivered to the court that day by the State Police. The People’s Court never reached a decision regarding the disposition of the evidence. I therefore request that all of the items delivered to the court – including the typewriter – be delivered to the State Police Headquarters in Munich for their use (ref. 13 226/43 II A/Sond.). I have also advised the State Police [of this decision].
