Information Note on the Court’s case-law 69
November 2004
Zazanis and Others v. Greece - 68138/01
Judgment 18.11.2004 [Section I]
Article 13
Effective remedy
Right to a remedy in respect of non-implementation of court judgment by the authorities: violation
Article 13 (extract): “In this case, the Court considers that, as in the Kudla v. Poland judgment with regard to observance of the reasonable time requirement for proceedings, it may be necessary to examine under Article 13 the complaints concerning the lack of an effective remedy to challenge the authorities’ refusal to comply with a final judgment, notwithstanding the finding of a violation of Article 6 § 1. It is therefore necessary to determine whether the Greek legal system afforded an effective remedy to the applicants within the meaning of Article 13 of the Convention, enabling them to put forward their arguable complaint and obtain redress.”
