SECOND SECTION
DECISION
Application no. 29614/14
Fatmira LULI
against Albania
The European Court of Human Rights (Second Section), sitting on 12 November 2019 as a Committee composed of:
Valeriu Griţco, President,
Egidijus Kūris,
Darian Pavli, judges,
and Hasan Bakirci, Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on 9 April 2014,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The applicant, Ms Fatmira Luli, is an Albanian national, who was born in 1962 and lives in Tirana.
The applicant’s complaints concerning the right of access to court and the fairness of the proceedings under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention were notified to the respondent Government on 8 November 2018.
The Government, who were represented by their Agent, Mr A. Metani of the State’s Advocate Office, submitted their observations on the admissibility and merits of the case on 22 February 2019.
The Registry’s letters of 8 November 2018, 6 March and 7 August 2019 addressed to the applicant’s home address have returned to the Registry undelivered with a note by the Albanian postal service that the address was unknown (i panjohur). Subsequently, the Registry attempted to reach the applicant at the telephone number indicated in the application form, but to no avail.
On 7 August 2019 the applicant’s attention was drawn to the fact that failure to submit a reply by 9 September 2019 might result in the striking‑out of the application in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention.
THE LAW
The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue her application, 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 case.
In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case 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 5 December 2019.
