Having regard to the above application lodged on 21 October 2007,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
THE FACTS
The applicant, Ms Anna Romanovna Velikokhatko, is a Ukrainian national who was born in 1928 and lives in Krasnyy Luch. The Ukrainian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Mr Yuriy Zaytsev. The applicant complained under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 about non-enforcement of a judgment in her favour.
Notice of the application was given to the Government, who submitted their observations on the admissibility and merits of the case on 20 March 2009. By a letter of 6 April 2009 the applicant was invited to submit her observations in reply together with any claims for just satisfaction by 18 May 2009. However, the applicant failed to do so. Moreover, she failed to respond to a registered letter dated 5 October 2009 warning the applicant of the possibility that her case might be struck out of the Court’s list.
THE LAW
Having regard to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, the Court concludes that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. 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 application.
For these reasons, the Court unanimously
Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
