Having deliberated, decides as follows:

FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Ms Serafima Vasilyevna Razgunosova, is a Russian national, who was born in 1933 and lives in Kirov.

The applicant ’ s complaints under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention were communicated to the Russian Government (“the 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 applicant failed to respond to the last Registry ’ s letter of 16 December 2016 (received on 14 January 2017), reminding that the period allowed for submission of her observations on the admissibility and merits of the application had expired on 3 June 2016 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 28 September 2017 .
