Having regard to the above application lodged on 21 July 2014,

FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The applicant, Mr Algirdas Glinskis, was born in 1978.
The applicant’s complaints under Article 3 of the Convention concerning the inadequate conditions of detention were communicated to the Lithuanian Government (“the Government”).
At the time of lodging his application before the Court (21 July 2014), the applicant was detained in Pravieniškės Correctional Facility. By letter dated 20 February 2018, sent by registered post to Pravieniškės Correctional Facility, the applicant was informed that notice of part of his application had been given to the Government and that the issues raised therein were the subject of well-established case-law of the Court. A friendly settlement declaration was proposed.
On 27 February 2018 the aforementioned letter was returned to the Court with a note stating that the applicant had been released from Pravieniškės Correctional Facility on 3 November 2017. The applicant has not provided the Court with any other address.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, the Court concludes that the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue the application (Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention). Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine, the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto which require the continued 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 26 July 2018.
