FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The applicant, Mr Dmytro Valeriyovych Fedota, was born in 1988.
The applicant’s complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention concerning the lack of opportunity to comment on the appeal were communicated to the Ukrainian Government (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was invited to submit his own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter.
By letter dated 13 July 2021, sent by registered post, the applicant was notified that the Registry had not received the response to its letter of 16 March 2021 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. According to the postal tracking system the applicant received the letter on 4 August 2021. However, no response has followed.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention and the Protocols thereto, the Court, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application.
Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
Done in English and notified in writing on 16 December 2021.
