FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Ms Tatyana Pavlovna Korzhova , is a Ukrainian national, who was born in 1964 and lives in Kryvy Rig .

The Ukrainian Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent.

The applicant complained under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention about the l ength of civil proceedings in her labour -related dispute and unfairness of the proceedings .

On 1 April 2013 and 15 Feb r uary 2014 the Court received friendly settlement declarations signed by the parties under which the applicant agreed to waive any further claims against Ukraine in respect of the facts giving rise to this application against an undertaking by the Government to pay her 600 (six hundred) euros to cover any non-pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses, which would be converted into the national currency at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and would be free of any taxes that m ight be applica ble . It is to be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court. In the event of failure to pay this sum within the said three-month period, the Government undertook to pay simple interest on it, 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 payment will constitute the final resolution of the case.

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 application. 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 in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention.
