The Committee of Ministers, under the terms of Article 32

(art. 32) of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and

Fundamental Freedoms (hereinafter referred to as "the Convention"),

Having regard to the report drawn up by the European

Commission of Human Rights in accordance with Article 31 (art. 31)

of the Convention relating to the application lodged on

11 November 1987 by Mrs Nadia Pavan against Italy

(Application No. 13695/88);

Whereas on 3 September 1992 the Commission transmitted the

said report to the Committee of Ministers and whereas the period of

three months provided for in Article 32, paragraph 1 (art. 32-1),

of the Convention has elapsed without the case having been brought

before the European Court of Human Rights in pursuance of

Article 48 (art. 48) of the Convention;

Whereas in her application, declared admissible by the

Commission on 9 December 1991, the applicant complained of the

excessive length of certain civil proceedings;

Whereas in its report adopted on 1 July 1992, the Commission

expressed, by six votes to two, the opinion that there had been a

violation of Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the Convention;

Whereas, at the 485th meeting of the Ministers' Deputies held

on 15 December 1992, the Committee of Ministers, agreeing with the

opinion expressed by the Commission, held, having voted in

accordance with the provisions of Article 32, paragraph 1

(art. 32-1), of the Convention, that there had been in this case a

violation of Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the Convention;

Whereas the Committee of Ministers examined the proposals made

by the Commission when transmitting its report as regards just

satisfaction to be awarded to the applicant, proposals supplemented

by a letter of the President of the Commission dated 14 May 1993;

Whereas, at the 507th meeting of the Deputies held

on 4 February 1994, the Committee of Ministers decided, in

accordance with Article 32, paragraph 2 (art. 32-2), of the

Convention, that no sum of money was to be paid to the applicant

because she had not submitted any claim for just satisfaction;

Whereas the Committee of Ministers invited the Government of

Italy to inform it of the measures taken following its decisions of

15 December 1992 and 4 February 1994, having regard to Italy's

obligation under Article 32, paragraph 4 (art. 32-4), of the

Convention to abide by them;

Whereas the Government of Italy recalled that measures had

already been taken to prevent the repetition of the violation found

in this case, through the entry into force on 30 April and

1 May 1995 of two laws restructuring the civil courts and speeding

up the civil proceedings (see Resolution DH (95) 82 in the case of

Zanghì against Italy),

Declares, having taken note of the measures taken by the

Government of Italy, that it has exercised its functions under

Article 32 (art. 32) of the Convention in this case;

Authorises the publication of the report adopted by the

Commission in this case.
