This is my gg-uncle Erno Gottfried, apparently in a prison record for the crime of "theft," in a record from the Royal Criminal Court of Budapest Prison (original record is indexed at https://archives.hungaricana.hu/hu/lear/Fogoly/248710/ )

If they appear on the record, I would be particularly interested in the details of Erno's crime and punishment, as well as any details of where he was living at the time, or any other relatives besides his parents who might have been mentioned. Erno was born in Bekecs, Zemplen County, but was known to have been living in Budapest at the time of his death in 1939, so he could well have moved there much earlier.
