Számtalan ember társaim tsupán egyedül azért, hogy engemet a magas végzések ebbéli hit vallással megajándékoztak – azon kívül azért, hogy mivel szegény sorsom miatt sem magamnak, sem pediglen másoknak némű jótévőségeket nem nyújthatok – egy általjában nem tsak meg károsíttani, sőt önkényük szerint ha a hatalom nékiek kedvezhettne – minden Törvény nélkül szegény állapotomat és gyermekeimet nem tekintvén e világból ki sanyargattatni készen volnának. Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Tanáts, kegyes Uraim több esztendöktől való sanyarúság midőképp békességes tűréssel el szenvedett visszontagságok között forogván – mindenkor ártatlanságomat és becsületes józanbéli viseletemet minden Törvényhatóságok, úgy más törvényes személyeknél – valahányszor tőlem meg kivántatott – bé mutattam – melynél fogva jövendőben akár mely tárgyban is – igazságos kéréseimet bé világosíttani kegyes vagyok. Szívbéli fájdalommal tehát sajnossan koros szép Eszetendeimre némely ellennem törekedő - s bal keresettel járulók által – nevezetessen Stein Lázár ennek előtte 11 Esztendők előtt volt Zsidók Közssége Tractér háznak kibérlője – azonkívül más idegen falusi magam nemzetségéből való Zsidók – kik ellenem több ízromban törekedvén – irígységök ki világosodván – kérelmükről el mozdittattak – s így csupán illyes fél mértékel fel épültt személyek által háborgattattom. Ezen szünet – és minden helyes ok nélkül Stein Lázár Zombori Zsidó s Kereskedő által épültt adósságbéli keresetét, melyet rajtam, a vagyis néhai Volff Posta Mesterem mind kezessemen tekervényes útokon rajtunk követelni kíván – e következendőképpen megczáfolom és pedig: 1 Én, a mint is állittatik – soha nem emlékezem arra, hogy 1818-ik esztendőtül fogva egész 1821-ik a nemes nagy városa Tanátsával a Zsidói Tractér árenda név alatt Contractust magam keze írássával mint árendás meg erősítettem volna. 2 Arra sem vagyok elegendőképpes azon Contractust meg szemlélni – mely a Nagy Méltóságú Magyar Udvari K. Kamara által alá írásom erejéhez képpest, meg erősitetett volna, végtére 3 Stein Lázárnak azon állítása, hogy ő 1818. és 1819. Esztendőben a kérdésben forgó tracter háznak kibérlője nem volt – meg mutattyák az ide alázatossan rekepített tulajdon keze irása és a Nemes Városi Tanács Gyülése kivonása sub N 501. ahol maga Stein Lázár a Licitátion jelen lévén 104 forintokba meg állapított Ennél fogvást tehát én sem árendátorja sem pedig valakinek adóssa magamat nem esmérhetem annyival is inkább; minthogy első Licitátió alkalmával mint licitátiós vagyonom heányossága végett bé nem vetítődtem - ujjra Licitátióra bocsájtatott a dolog – hogy pedig Volf néhai Posta Mester helyettem kezess lett volna – meg nem foghatom mivel érintett Posta Mesterrel gyakortább lévén – soha említést arról nem tett. Következésképpen Stein Lázárnak kelletett a Tractér háznak ki bérlője lenni, mivel ő fizette b a Várossa Cassába – a mostanában rajtam törvénytelenül kereső 208 forintokat. Mind ezeknek tekintetéből a Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Törvényhatóságot leg mélyebb alázatossággal meg kérem az eránt, hogy engemet é Pőrtől fel szabadíttani – Stein Lázárt pedig a rajtam minden helyes ok nélkül követelő 208 f- és 30 f… költség fejében adott volna törvénytelen Summától el mozdítani méltóztasson. Ki egyébb eránt a Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Törvényhatóság – Kegyes uraim pártfogásába a midőn magamat ajánlanám – leg mélyebb alázatossággal s engedelmességgel vagyok. A Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Tanátsnak kegyes uraimnak legalázatossabb szegény szolgája Veisz Salamon helybéli Zsidó. Zombor die 15. July 829.

Excelsa Camera Regia Hungarico-Aulica Zomborini die 10a Martii 1829. humillimus servus Lazarus Stein Ad Excelsam Cameram Regiam Hungarico-Aulicam Supplex Libellus Lazari Stein id petentis ut Zomboriensi Magistratui Civico comunitatur, quo sibi potentiose detenti 208 florini w. una cum expensis 30 florinos conv. m. efficientibus restituantur.	I, the undersigned, ex officio inform the High Magistrate that after being under Protocol No. 464, or on the basis of a document generously issued by the High Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary on April 1 under No. 10222, regarding the dispute over the Jewish Inn and involving the complainant Lazarus Stein, Salamon Weisz, but also the City Treasury, that I shed some light on the whole case, that I took into account what Salamon Weisz said, what is written in the complaint of Lazar Stein and what I received from the Supreme Royal Chamber of Hungary. Taking all this into account, as well as the statement of Salamon Weisz, which was also attached to the documentation, I came to the following thoughts and conclusions: 1. The settlement between Solomon Weisz and the City Treasury cannot be reported because Solomon Weisz was not even obliged to pay the mentioned amount because, as can be seen in the attached document 9a, that amount had to be paid by another tenant, Lazar Stein, who was included there for a reason, and his name was not deleted. 2. However, there are difficulties in making a settlement between the complainant Lazar Stein and Salamon Weisz because neither of them provided sufficient evidence in their favor, and while Weiss claims that a lease agreement that does not apply to him is in force, Lazar Stein claims that his right to that lease ceased and that the contract with Weiss thus continued, and on the other hand there is no clear document that firmly proves that his / Stein's / right to this benefit has ceased. 3. We have, therefore, the report of Mr. Senator on the lawsuit filed by Lazar Stein through his lawyer Martin Boross against Salamon Weisz; on the other hand we have the counter-lawsuit of Salamon Weisz, and basic documents, such as certified and final contract, are not available to both sides, or at least has not yet made them available. 4. Finally, there are numerous ambiguities and doubts in this whole dispute, so that, in my humble opinion, it cannot be judged in favor of Lazar Stein because the documents he submitted are not enough, as well as the report of lawyer Boross attached to the lawsuit under number 5, and it is not clear on this basis to whom exactly during the year 1819, 1829 and 1821 the right of lease belonged - whether to Weisz, to Stein or to the Jewish community, and how exactly that lease was. The lawsuit is accompanied by an excerpt from the instructions of the Magistrate, who decided that the complainant or his lawyer, Mr. Boross, should turn to me for an opinion. My opinion is the following: that since sufficient clarification cannot be provided to make the correct final decision; Lazar Stein should be instructed to give a statement not only by him, but also by people who can testify to it, and to take it with them under a solemn oath what he has before the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary; just in case, two guarantors, Bartholomei Wolff and Ignatius Raab, do the same, and they also give a statement about what may not be all officially written down. Certified in Sombor, on July 20, 1829. Joannes Ambrozovich senator No 923 The gentleman in question is also informed that the Jewish community should be heard in order to better clarify everything that relates to this case. In the Senate of the City of Sombor, on 10/11 August 1829. Report relating to Protocol No. 464 of 1829 752/1829 Highly Worthy Noble City Council The Most Merciful Gentlemen! Countless people just because the high ranks gave me faith in it - among other things because because of my poor destiny I can give nothing to myself or others - at the same time not only want to harm me, but would, if the government allowed them to do so, without any legality, they would be ready to expel me and my children from this world by torture. Highly worthy Noble City Council, merciful Gentlemen, and when I calmly accepted the long-standing misery at all times, I showed all the authorities and people of the law my innocence and honest, common sense, so that in the future I am ready to clarify my true request. With a pain in my heart (I see) unfortunately (despite) the good years of my age, several of those who work against me - and by those with demands - are especially Lázár Stein who 11 years ago was the tenant of the Jewish community inn - besides others The Jews of the village - who had worked against me on several occasions - thus shedding light on their envy - their pleas were rejected, and thus I am disturbed only by persons who are so used. Without stopping and without any justifiable reason, Lázár Stein a Jew and merchant from Sombor, demands the payment of his debts from me and the former postal master Wolf, as my guarantor, in various ways, which I consequently refute: 1. Despite what is claimed - I do not remember that from 1818 to 1821, I signed the contract as a tenant with the noble City Council called the Lease of the Jewish Inn. 2. I do not even have the opportunity to see the Agreement certified by the Hungarian Royal Court Chamber, namely 3. Lázár Stein's claim that he was not a tenant of the mentioned inn in 1818 and 1819 was refuted by his signature, and an excerpt from the Minutes from the session of the Noble City Council No. 505 where Lazar Stein himself hit 104 forints at the auction. So I'm nobody's tenant or anyone's debtor, especially since during the first auction I couldn't get it due to lack of my own funds for the auction, so the auction had to be held again - and the former postmaster Wolf was the guarantor instead of me - no I can understand because I've been with him often - and he never mentioned it to me. It follows that Lázár Stein was the tenant of the inn because he paid 208 forints into the City Treasury, which he is now illegally asking from me. Taking all this into account, I ask the noble legislative authorities of the city to release me from the lawsuit - and to remove Lázár Stein, who is asking me for 208 forints and 30 forints for no reason, from the illegal amount. With the deepest humility and obedience, I remain highly worthy and noble to the City Legislature - and offer myself under the auspices of my merciful Gentlemens. The most humble poor servant to the merciful gentleman of the High Noble City Council Salamon Veisz a local Jew To be handed over to the high legislative body of the Free Royal City of Sombor, my most merciful Lord, humble request Kisztner thing Bač ... inside elaboration Translated from Hebrew into German Friend Saloman! I am seeking compensation for 4 vessels of wine from 6 to 10 florins comes to me - 16 followed by -8 Now it comes to me based on expectations -8 / 32 f The wine will be delivered this week The bill amounts Please send me the 20 florins I need - 20 f Your friend Moses Basar in the month of August 1829 Dear Royal Court Chamber of Hungary, gracious gentlemen! Solomon Veisz, a Jew from our city community, through numerous frauds and various tricks led to the fact that he exclusively holds the privilege of renting a Jewish inn, without paying the annual rent to the City Treasury, and he made sure that no one came out as his opponent at auction, thus retaining in full the revenues of the said Treasury. With his incessant tricks, he caused difficulties and damages to some, and deterred others from bidding by keeping the right to rent all the time, while constantly writing complaints and causing new difficulties in such a way that for the years 1819, 1820 and 1821, there are a huge number of applications and complaints which he submitted to the Exalted Royal Court of Hungary through the City Magistrate, while the decisions of the City Magistrate on the subject of his submissions can also be found in the city registry. After announcing the auction for the right to lease the Jewish inn for three years - that is, from November 1, 1818 to October 8, 1821 - Veisz emerged as the winner of the auction by offering the highest amount of 403 florins of Viennese currency. However, he immediately lodged a complaint with the High Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary that the rent was too high, requesting that it be reduced, and since his appeal was not upheld, a new auction was launched for this right, as set out under Nos. 1 and 2 in the appendices excerpts from the protocol, and I legally offered the largest amount of 104 florins for a period of half a year and thus became a tenant for the period until October 8, 1821. Since the said Solomon Weiss again complained to the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary, offering 150 class of 160 Viennese florins, his request was considered by the city magistrate with the community of selected citizens and at their meeting, as can be seen in the excerpt under number 3, that privilege that belonged to me for barely three months was again transferred to Salamon Veisz because it was decided that he offered a higher annual sum of 150 Viennese florins. For the sake of greater security of the City Treasury, since Salamon Veisz has nothing in the world from property, according to the decision of the Association of Elected Citizens, it was decided that Weiss was guaranteed by Bartholomew Volf, a city community official, who guaranteed 150 Viennese florins a year, the guarantee is attached as No. 4 as well as in the city archives. However, that did not end there either, because Salamon Veisz again violated the lease of the Jewish kitchen with new complaints, and brought the City Treasury into such a dilemma that she no longer knew to whom exactly and how much rent she had to charge for the privilege of renting a Jewish inn. In order to clarify and investigate the mentioned situation, the Magistrate authorized senator and lawyer Martin Boross, who made an effort on the topic of the mentioned case and carried out an investigation, about which there is a report to the Magistrate attached under 5th point. Based on that, an excerpt from the protocol Annex 6 the Magistrate was supposed to make a final verdict with all the previously mentioned documents. Further detailed research established that despite the fact that there was an agreement between me and the city community on the right to rent a Jewish inn, that I was hindered in fulfilling my rights, and that I was mistakenly listed in the income list, both in the Magistrate and in office of the City Treasury as a tenant for 1820 and 1821, that is, for two years, although I was not questioned either during or after the lease. It turns out, therefore, that I was inscribed on that list of the City Treasury office as someone who was assigned to pay the sum of 38 florins and 12 kreuzers of conventional coin, or 208 Viennese florins in the name of a two-year lease without taking into account that I held only three leases month and a few days, as can be clearly seen in Annex 7. I made sure to return my money withheld from the City Magistrate (Annex 8) and I received a negative answer to that, since the prescribed settlement between the City Treasury and Solomon Weiss was established. on January 24, 1825, as can be seen in Appendix 8, but since Weiss did not pay anything and the city treasury had money in its possession that it kept from me, this whole calculation was not done. Since I tried to get my money back, which had been kept for so long, I again asked for a settlement between Weiss and the City Treasury (Appendix 10), and Senators Joannes Ambrozovits and David Konjović were authorized for that task on May 14, 1827. Since the authorized senators postponed it due to other obligations, I re-submitted the request and made sure to do it through my authorized lawyer so that the calculation could finally be done. Finally, after my strong pleas and pressures, the two of them, only after half a year on November 24, 1828, began to deal with it (as can be seen in Appendix 9). They took into account the showdown between Solomon Weiss and the City Treasury as well as my showdown with Solomon Weiss by comparing it to the report submitted to them by Martin Boross under number 5, comparing it with their sources, however, they complained that they did not have all the necessary evidence although it also seemed indicative to them that Solomon Weiss himself recognized in their presence the three original contracts (here in connection with Appendix 2) which he had personally signed with the city for the lease of the Jewish inn. Also, there was no confrontation between the City Treasury and Weiss, nor did the authorized senators do anything about it and expose it to the Magistrate, so they did not even hesitate to say that my complaint was unfounded (Appendix 11), which really left me amazed and I was still reprimanded for not paying what I had to. The fact that it was not my obligation to pay is evidenced by the decision of the Magistrate under number 9, where it says that this payment does not even concern me, but it is a matter between the cash register and Solomon Weiss, which I and my lawyer Martin Boros emphasized innumerable times without any result. Further, the above-mentioned authorized senators in connection with the case show that they did something other than what was entrusted to them in the appendices under 9 and 10, because their task was to establish a showdown between Solomon Weiss and the city treasury, and they are, for completely unknown reasons, they tried to determine a showdown between me and Solomon Weiss, although I have nothing to do with it. In the end, it turned out that the authorized senators did not do their job or carefully study the material given to them for that purpose, but did their job superficially, which can be seen under 11 where we had an incomplete and inadequate document where the guarantor's civil oath was completely ignored. Wolf, who under number 4 vouched for the sum of 150 Viennese florins in two years, in order for Weiss to take over the lease, and where it is clear that I need to return 208 florins, and now 92 florins because I am not obliged to suffer so much damage investigations and unfinished business. Since no one is obliged to pay for the right he does not use, which can be seen from document number 4, and no one can be forced to pay something for another without a hearing, and all this is perfectly clear from my previous presentation, supported by a report. of my lawyer Boross under number 5, it follows that I had the right to lease the Jewish inn for barely three months and that I only used it that much, and that it turns out that I have to pay the rent for a time that does not concern me at all, and for a period from the next three years when that right was used by someone completely different, and therefore my money that remained in the cash register was forcibly and illegally withheld. Therefore, I humbly ask the Supreme Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary, as well as the Sombor Magistrate, to return my 208 Viennese florins, which I gave for a privilege not used by me but Salamon Veisz, and to add to that amount the interest calculated from the first day of illegal retention , as well as an additional 30 florins of conventional coin in the name of expenses that I had for no reason, and that what should be collected either from Solomon Veisz who has nothing or his guarantor Bartholomew Volf. With great respect, appreciation and dedication. To the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary. In Sombor on March 10, 1829. Humble servant Lazar Stein To the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary A humble request Lazar Stein, who is asking that the city magistrate of Sombor be transferred to return the 208 Viennese florins with the remaining costs of 30 florins of conventional coin.

Nagy érdemű nemes Városi Tanáts
Nékem leg kegyesebb Úraim!
Számtalan ember társaim tsupán egyedül azért, hogy engemet a magas végzések ebbéli hit vallással megajándékoztak – azon kívül azért, hogy mivel szegény sorsom miatt sem magamnak, sem pediglen másoknak némű jótévőségeket nem nyújthatok – egy általjában nem tsak meg károsíttani, sőt önkényük szerint ha a hatalom nékiek kedvezhettne – minden Törvény nélkül szegény állapotomat és gyermekeimet nem tekintvén e világból ki sanyargattatni készen volnának.
Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Tanáts, kegyes Uraim több esztendöktől való sanyarúság midőképp békességes tűréssel el szenvedett visszontagságok között forogván – mindenkor ártatlanságomat és becsületes józanbéli viseletemet minden Törvényhatóságok, úgy más törvényes személyeknél – valahányszor tőlem meg kivántatott – bé mutattam – melynél fogva jövendőben akár mely tárgyban is – igazságos kéréseimet bé világosíttani kegyes vagyok.
Szívbéli fájdalommal tehát sajnossan koros szép Eszetendeimre némely ellennem törekedő - s bal keresettel járulók által – nevezetessen Stein Lázár ennek előtte 11 Esztendők előtt volt Zsidók Közssége Tractér háznak kibérlője – azonkívül más idegen falusi magam nemzetségéből való Zsidók – kik ellenem több ízromban törekedvén – irígységök ki világosodván – kérelmükről el mozdittattak – s így csupán illyes fél mértékel fel épültt személyek által háborgattattom.
Ezen szünet – és minden helyes ok nélkül Stein Lázár Zombori Zsidó s Kereskedő által épültt adósságbéli keresetét, melyet rajtam, a vagyis néhai Volff Posta Mesterem mind kezessemen tekervényes útokon rajtunk követelni kíván – e következendőképpen megczáfolom és pedig:
1 Én, a mint is állittatik – soha nem emlékezem arra, hogy 1818-ik esztendőtül fogva egész 1821-ik a nemes nagy városa Tanátsával a Zsidói Tractér árenda név alatt Contractust magam keze írássával mint árendás meg erősítettem volna.
2 Arra sem vagyok elegendőképpes azon Contractust meg szemlélni – mely a Nagy Méltóságú Magyar Udvari K. Kamara által alá írásom erejéhez képpest, meg erősitetett volna, végtére
3 Stein Lázárnak azon állítása, hogy ő 1818. és 1819. Esztendőben a kérdésben forgó tracter háznak kibérlője nem volt – meg mutattyák az ide alázatossan rekepített tulajdon keze irása és a Nemes Városi Tanács Gyülése kivonása sub N 501. ahol maga Stein Lázár a Licitátion jelen lévén 104 forintokba meg állapított
Ennél fogvást tehát én sem árendátorja sem pedig valakinek adóssa magamat nem esmérhetem annyival is inkább; minthogy első Licitátió alkalmával mint licitátiós vagyonom heányossága végett bé nem vetítődtem - ujjra Licitátióra bocsájtatott a dolog – hogy pedig Volf néhai Posta Mester helyettem kezess lett volna – meg nem foghatom mivel érintett Posta Mesterrel gyakortább lévén – soha említést arról nem tett. Következésképpen Stein Lázárnak kelletett a Tractér háznak ki bérlője lenni, mivel ő fizette b a Várossa Cassába – a mostanában rajtam törvénytelenül kereső 208 forintokat.
Mind ezeknek tekintetéből a Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Törvényhatóságot leg mélyebb alázatossággal meg kérem az eránt, hogy engemet é Pőrtől fel szabadíttani – Stein Lázárt pedig a rajtam minden helyes ok nélkül követelő 208 f- és 30 f… költség fejében adott volna törvénytelen Summától el mozdítani méltóztasson.
Ki egyébb eránt a Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Törvényhatóság – Kegyes uraim pártfogásába a midőn magamat ajánlanám – leg mélyebb alázatossággal s engedelmességgel vagyok.
A Nagy érdemű Nemes Városi Tanátsnak kegyes uraimnak

Cum autem nemo pro illo Jure, quod non usuat, aut docente Documento numero 4. usuare impeditus exstitit, arendam solvere obligetur et porro nemo inauditus convinci aut pro alio solvere cogi possit, hoc ipsum vero mecum intervenisse e predicta Expositione mea Documentis fulcita sed presertim e Relatione Borossiana sub numero 5to provocata manifeste eveniat, et enim exarendatum mihi Jus Judaici Tracterii vix tribus mensibus usuatum a me receptum est, et tamen obveniens arenda, et qudem nec sub nec pro defluo Contractuali me concernente tempore, sed pro tempore aliena arendae et hoc post tres circiter annos, quin eatenus auditus, aut suo modo convictus fuissem, e pecuniis meis e Cassa mihi pro administratis mercibus assignatis percipiendis insperato contra resentuum meum violenter detenta est.

Ad Excelsam Cameram Regiam Hungarico-Aulicam
Supplex Libellus
Lazari Stein id petentis ut Zomboriensi Magistratui Civico comunitatur, quo sibi potentiose detenti 208 florini w. una cum expensis 30 florinos conv. m. efficientibus restituantur.

I, the undersigned, ex officio inform the High Magistrate that after being under Protocol No. 464, or on the basis of a document generously issued by the High Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary on April 1 under No. 10222, regarding the dispute over the Jewish Inn and involving the complainant Lazarus Stein, Salamon Weisz, but also the City Treasury, that I shed some light on the whole case, that I took into account what Salamon Weisz said, what is written in the complaint of Lazar Stein and what I received from the Supreme Royal Chamber of Hungary. Taking all this into account, as well as the statement of Salamon Weisz, which was also attached to the documentation, I came to the following thoughts and conclusions:
1. The settlement between Solomon Weisz and the City Treasury cannot be reported because Solomon Weisz was not even obliged to pay the mentioned amount because, as can be seen in the attached document 9a, that amount had to be paid by another tenant, Lazar Stein, who was included there for a reason, and his name was not deleted.
2. However, there are difficulties in making a settlement between the complainant Lazar Stein and Salamon Weisz because neither of them provided sufficient evidence in their favor, and while Weiss claims that a lease agreement that does not apply to him is in force, Lazar Stein claims that his right to that lease ceased and that the contract with Weiss thus continued, and on the other hand there is no clear document that firmly proves that his / Stein's / right to this benefit has ceased.
3. We have, therefore, the report of Mr. Senator on the lawsuit filed by Lazar Stein through his lawyer Martin Boross against Salamon Weisz; on the other hand we have the counter-lawsuit of Salamon Weisz, and basic documents, such as certified and final contract, are not available to both sides, or at least has not yet made them available.
4. Finally, there are numerous ambiguities and doubts in this whole dispute, so that, in my humble opinion, it cannot be judged in favor of Lazar Stein because the documents he submitted are not enough, as well as the report of lawyer Boross attached to the lawsuit under number 5, and it is not clear on this basis to whom exactly during the year 1819, 1829 and 1821 the right of lease belonged - whether to Weisz, to Stein or to the Jewish community, and how exactly that lease was. The lawsuit is accompanied by an excerpt from the instructions of the Magistrate, who decided that the complainant or his lawyer, Mr. Boross, should turn to me for an opinion.
My opinion is the following: that since sufficient clarification cannot be provided to make the correct final decision; Lazar Stein should be instructed to give a statement not only by him, but also by people who can testify to it, and to take it with them under a solemn oath what he has before the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary; just in case, two guarantors, Bartholomei Wolff and Ignatius Raab, do the same, and they also give a statement about what may not be all officially written down. Certified in Sombor, on July 20, 1829.

Joannes Ambrozovich senator
No 923 The gentleman in question is also informed that the Jewish community should be heard in order to better clarify everything that relates to this case. In the Senate of the City of Sombor, on 10/11 August 1829.
Report relating to Protocol No. 464 of 1829

752/1829
Highly Worthy Noble City Council
The Most Merciful Gentlemen!
Countless people just because the high ranks gave me faith in it - among other things because because of my poor destiny I can give nothing to myself or others - at the same time not only want to harm me, but would, if the government allowed them to do so, without any legality, they would be ready to expel me and my children from this world by torture.
Highly worthy Noble City Council, merciful Gentlemen, and when I calmly accepted the long-standing misery at all times, I showed all the authorities and people of the law my innocence and honest, common sense, so that in the future I am ready to clarify my true request.
With a pain in my heart (I see) unfortunately (despite) the good years of my age, several of those who work against me - and by those with demands - are especially Lázár Stein who 11 years ago was the tenant of the Jewish community inn - besides others The Jews of the village - who had worked against me on several occasions - thus shedding light on their envy - their pleas were rejected, and thus I am disturbed only by persons who are so used.
Without stopping and without any justifiable reason, Lázár Stein a Jew and merchant from Sombor, demands the payment of his debts from me and the former postal master Wolf, as my guarantor, in various ways, which I consequently refute:
1. Despite what is claimed - I do not remember that from 1818 to 1821, I signed the contract as a tenant with the noble City Council called the Lease of the Jewish Inn.
2. I do not even have the opportunity to see the Agreement certified by the Hungarian Royal Court Chamber, namely
3. Lázár Stein's claim that he was not a tenant of the mentioned inn in 1818 and 1819 was refuted by his signature, and an excerpt from the Minutes from the session of the Noble City Council No. 505 where Lazar Stein himself hit 104 forints at the auction.
So I'm nobody's tenant or anyone's debtor, especially since during the first auction I couldn't get it due to lack of my own funds for the auction, so the auction had to be held again - and the former postmaster Wolf was the guarantor instead of me - no I can understand because I've been with him often - and he never mentioned it to me.
It follows that Lázár Stein was the tenant of the inn because he paid 208 forints into the City Treasury, which he is now illegally asking from me.
Taking all this into account, I ask the noble legislative authorities of the city to release me from the lawsuit - and to remove Lázár Stein, who is asking me for 208 forints and 30 forints for no reason, from the illegal amount.
With the deepest humility and obedience, I remain highly worthy and noble to the City Legislature - and offer myself under the auspices of my merciful Gentlemens.
The most humble poor servant to the merciful gentleman of the High Noble City Council
Salamon Veisz

Dear Royal Court Chamber of Hungary, gracious gentlemen!

Solomon Veisz, a Jew from our city community, through numerous frauds and various tricks led to the fact that he exclusively holds the privilege of renting a Jewish inn, without paying the annual rent to the City Treasury, and he made sure that no one came out as his opponent at auction, thus retaining in full the revenues of the said Treasury. With his incessant tricks, he caused difficulties and damages to some, and deterred others from bidding by keeping the right to rent all the time, while constantly writing complaints and causing new difficulties in such a way that for the years 1819, 1820 and 1821, there are a huge number of applications and complaints which he submitted to the Exalted Royal Court of Hungary through the City Magistrate, while the decisions of the City Magistrate on the subject of his submissions can also be found in the city registry.
After announcing the auction for the right to lease the Jewish inn for three years - that is, from November 1, 1818 to October 8, 1821 - Veisz emerged as the winner of the auction by offering the highest amount of 403 florins of Viennese currency. However, he immediately lodged a complaint with the High Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary that the rent was too high, requesting that it be reduced, and since his appeal was not upheld, a new auction was launched for this right, as set out under Nos. 1 and 2 in the appendices excerpts from the protocol, and I legally offered the largest amount of 104 florins for a period of half a year and thus became a tenant for the period until October 8, 1821. Since the said Solomon Weiss again complained to the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary, offering 150 class of 160 Viennese florins, his request was considered by the city magistrate with the community of selected citizens and at their meeting, as can be seen in the excerpt under number 3, that privilege that belonged to me for barely three months was again transferred to Salamon Veisz because it was decided that he offered a higher annual sum of 150 Viennese florins. For the sake of greater security of the City Treasury, since Salamon Veisz has nothing in the world from property, according to the decision of the Association of Elected Citizens, it was decided that Weiss was guaranteed by Bartholomew Volf, a city community official, who guaranteed 150 Viennese florins a year, the guarantee is attached as No. 4 as well as in the city archives. However, that did not end there either, because Salamon Veisz again violated the lease of the Jewish kitchen with new complaints, and brought the City Treasury into such a dilemma that she no longer knew to whom exactly and how much rent she had to charge for the privilege of renting a Jewish inn. In order to clarify and investigate the mentioned situation, the Magistrate authorized senator and lawyer Martin Boross, who made an effort on the topic of the mentioned case and carried out an investigation, about which there is a report to the Magistrate attached under 5th point. Based on that, an excerpt from the protocol Annex 6 the Magistrate was supposed to make a final verdict with all the previously mentioned documents. Further detailed research established that despite the fact that there was an agreement between me and the city community on the right to rent a Jewish inn, that I was hindered in fulfilling my rights, and that I was mistakenly listed in the income list, both in the Magistrate and in office of the City Treasury as a tenant for 1820 and 1821, that is, for two years, although I was not questioned either during or after the lease. It turns out, therefore, that I was inscribed on that list of the City Treasury office as someone who was assigned to pay the sum of 38 florins and 12 kreuzers of conventional coin, or 208 Viennese florins in the name of a two-year lease without taking into account that I held only three leases month and a few days, as can be clearly seen in Annex 7. I made sure to return my money withheld from the City Magistrate (Annex 8) and I received a negative answer to that, since the prescribed settlement between the City Treasury and Solomon Weiss was established. on January 24, 1825, as can be seen in Appendix 8, but since Weiss did not pay anything and the city treasury had money in its possession that it kept from me, this whole calculation was not done. Since I tried to get my money back, which had been kept for so long, I again asked for a settlement between Weiss and the City Treasury (Appendix 10), and Senators Joannes Ambrozovits and David Konjović were authorized for that task on May 14, 1827. Since the authorized senators postponed it due to other obligations, I re-submitted the request and made sure to do it through my authorized lawyer so that the calculation could finally be done. Finally, after my strong pleas and pressures, the two of them, only after half a year on November 24, 1828, began to deal with it (as can be seen in Appendix 9). They took into account the showdown between Solomon Weiss and the City Treasury as well as my showdown with Solomon Weiss by comparing it to the report submitted to them by Martin Boross under number 5, comparing it with their sources, however, they complained that they did not have all the necessary evidence although it also seemed indicative to them that Solomon Weiss himself recognized in their presence the three original contracts (here in connection with Appendix 2) which he had personally signed with the city for the lease of the Jewish inn. Also, there was no confrontation between the City Treasury and Weiss, nor did the authorized senators do anything about it and expose it to the Magistrate, so they did not even hesitate to say that my complaint was unfounded (Appendix 11), which really left me amazed and I was still reprimanded for not paying what I had to. The fact that it was not my obligation to pay is evidenced by the decision of the Magistrate under number 9, where it says that this payment does not even concern me, but it is a matter between the cash register and Solomon Weiss, which I and my lawyer Martin Boros emphasized innumerable times without any result. Further, the above-mentioned authorized senators in connection with the case show that they did something other than what was entrusted to them in the appendices under 9 and 10, because their task was to establish a showdown between Solomon Weiss and the city treasury, and they are, for completely unknown reasons, they tried to determine a showdown between me and Solomon Weiss, although I have nothing to do with it. In the end, it turned out that the authorized senators did not do their job or carefully study the material given to them for that purpose, but did their job superficially, which can be seen under 11 where we had an incomplete and inadequate document where the guarantor's civil oath was completely ignored. Wolf, who under number 4 vouched for the sum of 150 Viennese florins in two years, in order for Weiss to take over the lease, and where it is clear that I need to return 208 florins, and now 92 florins because I am not obliged to suffer so much damage investigations and unfinished business.
Since no one is obliged to pay for the right he does not use, which can be seen from document number 4, and no one can be forced to pay something for another without a hearing, and all this is perfectly clear from my previous presentation, supported by a report. of my lawyer Boross under number 5, it follows that I had the right to lease the Jewish inn for barely three months and that I only used it that much, and that it turns out that I have to pay the rent for a time that does not concern me at all, and for a period from the next three years when that right was used by someone completely different, and therefore my money that remained in the cash register was forcibly and illegally withheld.
Therefore, I humbly ask the Supreme Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary, as well as the Sombor Magistrate, to return my 208 Viennese florins, which I gave for a privilege not used by me but Salamon Veisz, and to add to that amount the interest calculated from the first day of illegal retention , as well as an additional 30 florins of conventional coin in the name of expenses that I had for no reason, and that what should be collected either from Solomon Veisz who has nothing or his guarantor Bartholomew Volf. With great respect, appreciation and dedication. To the Exalted Court Chamber of the Kingdom of Hungary. In Sombor on March 10, 1829.
