On 27 July and 25 August 2010 the Court received friendly settlement declarations signed by the parties under which the applicant s agreed to waive any further claims against Turkey in respect of the facts giving rise to th ese application s against an undertaking by the Government to pay them the sums indicated in the annexed table to cover any pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses, which w ill be converted into Turkish liras at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be free of a ny taxes that may be applicable . They will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court pursuant to Article 37 § 1 of the European Convention on Human Rights. In the event of failure to pay th ese sum s within the said three-month period, the Government undert ake to pay simple interest on them , from 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 s .

THE LAW

1. Having regard to the similar subject matter of the applications, the Court finds it appropriate to join them .

2. 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 public policy reasons to justify a continued examination of the application s (Article 37 § 1 in fine of the Convention).

In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the cas e s out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court unanimously

Decides to join the applications,

Decides to strike the applicatio ns out of its list of cases.
