Branko Lubarda , President, Pere Pastor Vilanova , Georgios A. Serghides , judges,

and Fatoş Aracı , Deputy Section Registrar ,

Having regard to the above application lodged on 13 January 2011,

Having deliberated, decides as follows:

FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Ms Svetlana Yuryevna Barinova , is a Ukrainian national, who was born in 1982. She was represented before the Court by Mr A. Artamoshkin , a lawyer practising in the Moscow Region.

The applicant ’ s complaints were communicated to the Russian Government, who were represented initially by Mr G. Matyushkin , the Representative of the Russian Federation to the European Court of Human Rights, and then by his successor in that office, Mr M. Galperin . The Ukrainian Government indicated that they did not wish to exercise their right to intervene in the proceedings under Article 36 § 1 of the Convention.

The applicant did not respond to the Court ’ s letter of 7 July 2017 by which she had been reminded that the period allowed for submission of her observations in reply had expired on 2 June 2017 and that no extension of time had been requested. Her attention was drawn to 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 11 January 2018 .
