THIRD SECTION
Application no. 57511/14
Kostas DIMITRIOU
against Cyprus
lodged on 9 August 2014
SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE
The application concerns the non-enforcement of a Supreme Court judgment given in the applicant’s favour on 27 March 2014 following an application (no. 2/2013) on his part under the Law Providing For Effective Remedies for Exceeding the Reasonable Time Requirement for the Determination of Civil Rights and Obligations (Law no. 2(I)/2010). The Supreme Court held that the length of the pending proceedings in civil appeal no. 350/2010 brought by the applicant was not reasonable and in violation of his rights under Article 30 § 2 of the Constitution and Article 6 § 1 of the Convention. It awarded the applicant 1,500 euros as just satisfaction plus costs.
The applicant complains that the Supreme Court’s judgment has not been
enforced as the Government have still not paid him the award of damages.
QUESTION TO THE PARTIES
Has there been a violation of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention on account of the lengthy non-enforcement of the final judgment of 27 March 2014 by the Supreme Court in the applicant’s favour?
