FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Ms Ecaterina Coroi , is a Moldovan national, who was born in 1978 and lives in Wien. She was represented before the Court by Ms D. Pagoni , a lawyer practising in Chișinău .

The Moldovan Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Mr L. Apostol.

The applicant complained under Article 6 of the Convention and under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention.

The case was communicated to the Government on 12 July 2013 and they duly submitted their observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was invited to submit her own observations. No reply was received to the Registry ’ s letter.

By a letter dated 20 June 2014, sent by registered post, the applicant ’ s representative was notified that the period allowed for submission of her observations had expired on 17 March 2014 and that no extension of the deadline had been requested. 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 that letter on 27 June 2014. 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 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 17 December 2015 .
