FIRST SECTION

DECISION

Application no . 21634/15 Mirela SINANI against Albania and 6 other applications (see list appended)

The European Court of Human Rights (First Section), sitting on 10 May 2016 as a Committee composed of:

Aleš Pejchal, President, Ledi Bianku, Armen Harutyunyan, judges, and Abel Campos, Section Registrar ,

Having regard to the above applications,

Having regard to the formal declarations accepting a friendly settlement of the cases,

Having deliberated, decides as follows:

FACTS AND PROCEDURE

A list of the applicants is set out in the appendix.

The Albanian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Ms A. Hicka of the State Advocate ’ s Office.

The applicants complained under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention about the length of civil proceedings.

On 25 January and 8 March 2016 the Court received friendly settlement declarations signed by the parties under which, as regards applications nos. 21634/15, 21693/15, 25430/15, 27429/15, 30171/15 and 30175/15, the applicants agreed to waive any further claims against Albania in respect of the facts giving rise to these applications against an undertaking by the Government to pay each of them EUR 1,100 (one thousand one hundred euros) to cover any and all non-pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses.

As regards application no. 27438/15 the applicant agreed to waive any further claims against Albania in respect of the facts giving rise to this application against an undertaking b y the Government to pay him EUR 1,700 (one thousand seven hundred euros) to cover any and all non ‑ pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses.

According to the friendly settlement declarations, the above awards will be converted into the local currency at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be free of any taxes that may be applicable. They will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court. In the event of failure to pay those sums within the said three-month period, the Government undertakes to pay simple interest on them, from the expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points. The above payments will constitute the final resolution of the cases.

THE LAW

The Court takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties. It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols and finds no reasons to justify a continued examination of the applications. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case s out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,

Decides to strike the applications out of its list of cases in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention.

Done in English and notified in writing on 2 June 2016 .
