Nona Tsotsoria , President, Gabriele Kucsko-Stadlmayer, Lәtif Hüseynov , judges, and Liv Tigerstedt , Acting Deputy Section Registrar ,
Having regard to the above applications lodged on the various dates indicated in the appended table,

THE FACTS
The list of applicants is set out in the appended table.
The applicants ’ complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention concerning the non-enforcement or delayed enforcement of domestic decisions were communicated to the Azerbaijani Government (“the Government”), which submitted observations on the admissibility and merits.
By letters dated 28 April 2016, sent by registered post, the applicants were notified that the period allowed for submission of their observations had expired on 22 March 2016 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicants were requested to inform the Court before 25 May 2016 if they wished to maintain their applications. The applicants ’ attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. However, no response has been received.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, the Court concludes that the applicants may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue their applications 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 the Protocols thereto which require the continued examination of the applications.
Accordingly, the cases should be struck out of the list.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Decides to join the applications;
Decides to strike the applications out of the list of cases.
Done in English and notified in writing on 9 November 2017 .
