FACTS AND PROCEDURE

1. The applicant, Mr Jarosław Trębicki, is a Polish national, who was born in 1954 and lives in Pruszk ó w.

2. The applicant ’ s complaint about the length of the criminal proceedings against him (Article 6 § 1 of the Convention) was communicated to the Polish Government, who were represented by their Agent, Ms J. Chrzanowska, of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

3. The applicant failed to respond to the last registry ’ s letter of 23 September 2016 (which was returned unclaimed), reminding him that the period allowed for submission of his comments on the Government ’ s unilateral declaration had expired on 17 August 2016 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant ’ s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention and a f resh time-limit was fixed at 21 October 2016. No reply was received and, after having informed the registry of his change of address in October 2011, the applicant has not kept any contact with the Court.

THE LAW

4. The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue his application, within the meaning of Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention (see, mutatis mutandis , Getiashvili and Khachidze v. Georgia (dec.), no. 28405/11, 30 March 2017). 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.

5. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list.
