FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Tasino Češmiče Ltd , is a company registered in the respondent State . It was represented before the Court by its representative, Mr B. Ilievski .

The Macedonian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Mr K. Bogdanov .

The applicant complained about the length of compensation proceedings.

The application was communicated to the Government, who accepted the Registrar ’ s friendly-settlement proposal. By letter dated 18 December 2015 , the applicant ’ s representative was requested to inform about the applicant ’ s position on the friendly-settlement proposal and to transmit a valid signed declaration to that effect .

By letter dated 3 March 2016, sent by registered post, the applicant was again invited to provide the same information. The applicant ’ s representative ’ s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike a case out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. The applicant ’ s representative received this letter on 31 March 2016 . However, no response has been received.

THE LAW

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. 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.
