Application no. 1267/13
Maksim Vladimirovich IGNATYEV
against Ukraine
The European Court of Human Rights (Fifth Section), sitting on 7 December 2017 as a Committee composed of:
André Potocki, President,
Síofra O’Leary,
Mārtiņš Mits, judges,
and Liv Tigerstedt, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on the date indicated in the appended table,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The relevant details of the application are set out in the appended table.
The applicant’s complaints under Articles 6 § 1 and 13 of the Convention concerning the excessive length of criminal proceedings and the lack of any effective remedy in domestic law were communicated to the Ukrainian Government (“the Government”). The applicants also raised other complaints under the provisions of the Convention.
THE LAW
A. Complaints under Articles 6 § 1 and 13 of the Convention (excessive length of criminal proceedings and the lack of any effective remedy in domestic law)
The Court, having examined all the materials submitted to it and having regard to its case-law on the subject (see, for example, Merit v. Ukraine, no. 66561/01, 30 March 2004), considers that the applicant’s complaints under this head are inadmissible since the length of the proceedings was not excessive or unreasonable.
In view of the above, the Court finds that these complaints are manifestly ill-founded and must be rejected in accordance with Article 35 §§ 3 and 4 of the Convention.
B. Remaining complaints
The applicant also raised other complaints under various articles of the Convention.
The Court has examined the application and considers that, in the light of all the material in its possession and in so far as the matters complained of are within its competence, these complaints either do not meet the admissibility criteria set out in Articles 34 and 35 of the Convention or do not disclose any appearance of a violation of the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Convention or the Protocols thereto.
It follows that this part of the application must be rejected in accordance with Article 35 § 4 of the Convention.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Declares the application inadmissible.
Done in English and notified in writing on 11 January 2018.
