FIFTH SECTION
DECISION
Application no. 19526/06
Leonid Mykhaylovych KOSHELEV against Ukraine
and 3 other applications
(see list appended)
The European Court of Human Rights (Fifth Section), sitting on 21 February 2012 as a committee composed of:
Mark Villiger, President,
Karel Jungwiert,
André Potocki, judges,
and Stephen Phillips, Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above applications lodged on various dates,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
THE FACTS
The applications were lodged by five Ukrainian nationals whose details are specified in the table attached below. The Ukrainian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Ms Valeria Lutkovska, of the Ministry of Justice.
The applicants complained about lengthy non-enforcement of the domestic judgments given in their favour. These complaints were communicated to the Government, who submitted unilateral declarations to settle the cases. The declarations were forwarded to the applicants, who were invited to submit their comments. No replies followed.
By registered letters sent on 26-28 September 2011 the applicants were warned that their applications might be struck out of the Court’s list of cases pursuant to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention. In the application no. 19526/06 the Court’s letter was returned undelivered as the addressee was not found. In the remaining applications no replies followed.
THE LAW
1. The Court considers that the applications should be joined, given their common legal and factual background.
2. It further considers that, in these circumstances, the applicants may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue their applications, within the meaning of 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 its Protocols which require the continued examination of the cases.
In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the cases out of the list.
For these reasons, the Court unanimously
Decides to join the applications and to strike them out of its list of cases.
