Application no.
35497/06
Nina Vladimirovna VOROBYEVA and Others
against Russia
The European Court of Human Rights (First Section), sitting on 27 March 2012 as a Committee composed of:
Mirjana Lazarova Trajkovska, President,
Anatoly Kovler,
Erik Møse, judges,
and André Wampach, Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on 24 July 2006,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
THE FACTS
The applicants, Ms Nina Vladimirovna Vorobyeva, Mr Vladimir Nikolayevich Vorobyev and Ms Lyudmila Valeryevna Nikonova are Russian nationals who were born in 1949, 1948 and 1979 respectively and live in the Pskov Region of the Russian Federation. The Russian Government (“the Government”) were represented by Mr G. Matyushkin, the Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights.
The applicants complained under Article 6 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 about the quashing of a final judgment in their favour by way of supervisory review.
On 3 May 2010 the Court decided to give notice of the application to the Government.
On 24 September 2010 the Government submitted to the Registry a copy of the first applicant’s letter informing the Court of her wish to withdraw the application. By letters sent by registered post on 18 March 2011 the Registry requested the three applicants to inform the Court of their intention to continue the proceedings before the Court. No reply was received from the applicants.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention or its Protocols, the Court considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application within the meaning of Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention.
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.
