FIRST SECTION

Application no. 26504/20 Nikolaos ANAGNOSTAKIS against Greece lodged on 10 June 2020

SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE

The application concerns non-enforcement of court decisions setting the contact schedule between the applicant and his child. Following the couple ’ s separation, the parents shared parental responsibility, the mother had custody of the child, and the applicant was granted contact rights. According to the applicant, the mother alienated the child from him and the authorities were not sufficiently active to help him restore his relationship with his child, even though he made several requests to that effect to various authorities.

QUESTIONS TO THE PARTIES

Has there been a violation of the applicant ’ s right to respect for his family life, as guaranteed by Article 8 of the Convention?

In particular, have the domestic authorities provided sufficient assistance to the applicant for the enforcement of the domestic decision granting him contact rights with his child (decisions no. 585/2018 of the Athens one-member First-Instance Court and no. 1600/2019 of the one-member Athens Court of Appeal)?
