SECOND SECTION

DECISION

Application no . 76064/11 Ramazan VAROL against Turkey and 29 other applications (see list appended)

The European Court of Human Rights (Second Section), sitting on 17 September 2013 as a Committee composed of:

Peer Lorenzen, President, András Sajó, Nebojša Vučinić, judges, and Atilla Nalbant , Acting Deputy Section Registrar ,

Having regard to the above applications , indicated in the appendix ,

Having deliberated , decides as follows:

THE FACTS

A list of the applicants is set out in the appendix. Additionally , the case and decision numbers of the impugned proceedings appear in the appendix.

A. The circumstances of the case

The facts of the case , as submitted by the applicants , may be summarised as follows.

On various dates, the applicants initiated actions before the civil court s or civil proceedings were brought against them before the civil courts. The procedures are lasting for several years.

B. Relevant domestic law

A description of the relevant domestic law may be found in Müdür Turgut and Others ((dec.), no . 4860/09, §§ 19-26, 26 March 2013 ).

COMPLAINTS

The applicants complained under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention that the proceedings before the national courts had not been concluded within a reasonable time.

Certain applicants also alleged a violation of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention.

I. JOINDER OF THE APPLICATIONS

The Court first considers that in accordance with Rule 42 § 1 of the Rules of Court , the applications should be joined , given the similarity of the facts and of the legal issues raised.

II. ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE 6 § 1 OF THE CONVENTION

The applicants complained that the length of the proceedings was incompatible with the “reasonable time” requirement, laid down in Article 6 § 1 of the Convention, which reads as follows:

“In the determination of his c ivil rights and obligations ... everyone is entitled to a ... hearing within a reasonable time by a ... tribunal ...”

The Court observes that the applicants asserted that the length of the proceedings was incompatible with the principle of the “reasonable time” requirement in accordance with Article 6 § 1 of the Convention. In that respect, the Court found in Müdür Turgut and Others (cited above , § 56) that the Compensation Commission established by Law no. 6384, insofar as it is accessible and capable of offering reasonable prospects of redress for complaints concerning the length of proceedings constituted a remedy which applicants were required to exhaust f or the purposes of Article 35 § 1 of the Convention. In the present cases, the Court sees no reason to come to a different conclusion.

It follows that these complaints must be rejected under Article 35 §§ 1 and 4 of the Convention for non-exhaustion of domestic remedies.

III. ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE 1 OF PROTOCOL N o . 1 OF THE CONVENTION

Certain applicants claimed under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 that the amounts awarded to them had lost their value due to the length of the proceedings. The Court observes that the civil proceedings against the applicants are still pending before the domestic courts. Therefore, the related complaints under this article are premature and must be rejected for non-exhaustion of domestic remedies pursuant to Article 35 §§ 1 and 4 of the Convention .

For these reasons, the Court unanimously

Decides to join the applications;

Declares the applications inadmissible.
