PROCEDURE
The application was lodged by Mr Vasiliy Vasilyevich Baranov, a Ukrainian national who was born in 1952. He was represented before the Court by S.A. Bezkrovnyy, a lawyer practising in Nova Kahovka. The Ukrainian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Mr Yuriy Zaytsev.
The applicant complained under Articles 6 § 1 and 13 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 about the non-enforcement of the judgment given in his favour against a State entity.
On 14 January 2009 the President of the Fifth Section decided, under Rule 54 § 2 (b) of the Rules of Court, to communicate the application to the Government.
By letter of 29 December 2009, the applicant's lawyer informed the Registry that the applicant had died on 5 November 2009. There was no person expressing the wish to pursue the application.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, the Court finds that there exists no general interest in the present case which necessitates proceeding with the examination of the complaints raised. Accordingly, the conditions in which a case may be struck out of its list, as provided in Article 37 § 1 of the Convention, are satisfied.
For these reasons, the Court unanimously
Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
