SECOND SECTION
Application no. 50523/12
Bekir KOÇER
against Turkey
lodged on 6 June 2012
SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE
The application concerns lack of compensation for the damages caused to the applicant as a result of an erroneous entry in the land registry concerning the surface-area of a piece of land purchased by the applicant.
Invoking Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention, the applicant claims that the reduction of his land area and the lack of compensation had violated his right to property.
QUESTION tO THE PARTIES
In the light of the Court’s judgment of Gürtaş Yapı Ticaret ve Pazarlama A. Ş. v. Turkey, (no. 40896/05, 7 July 2015), has there been a violation of the applicant’s right to peaceful enjoyment of his possession due to the lack of compensation for the reduction in his land area? In particular, did such deprivation impose an excessive individual burden on the applicant?
