The applicant ’ s details are set out in the appended table.

The applicant was represented by Mr H. Salkanović, a lawyer practising in Živinice.

The applicant ’ s complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 about the failure of the respondent State to enforce the judgment rendered in its favour were communicated to the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina (“the Government”) .

The Court received friendly-settlement declaration under which the applicant agreed to waive any further claims against Bosnia and Herzegovina in respect of the facts giving rise to this application, subject to an undertaking by the Government to pay him the amounts detailed in the appended table. These amounts will be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the Court ’ s decision. In the event of failure to pay these amounts within the above ‑ mentioned three-month period, the Government undertake to pay simple interest on them, from the expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points.

The Court further notes that the Government will ensure that all necessary steps are taken to allow the domestic proceedings under consideration in this case to be concluded as speedily as possible, taking into accounts the requirements of the proper administration of justice.

The payment will constitute the final resolution of the case.

THE LAW

It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto and finds no reasons to justify a continued examination of the application. 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 in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention .
