FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The list of applicants and the relevant details of the application s are set out in the appended table.

THE LAW
A. Joinder of the applications
Having regard to the similar subject matter of the applications, the Court finds it appropriate to examine them jointly in a single decision.
B. Complaints under Articles 6 § 1 and 13 of the Convention
The Court, having examined all the materials submitted to it and having regard to its case-law on the subject (see, for example, Koval v. Ukraine ( dec. ), no. 65550/01, 30 March 2004) , considers that the applicants ’ complaints under this head are inadmissible since they were introduced out of time .
In view of the above, the Court finds that these complaints are manifestly ill-founded and must be rejected in accordance with Article 35 §§ 1 and 4 of the Convention.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Decides to join the applications;
Declares the application s inadmissible.
