    FIFTH SECTION

    DECISION

    Application no. 3669/04
    by Lidiya Viktorovna MAKAROVA
    against Ukraine

    The European Court of Human Rights (Fifth Section), sitting on 26 January 2010 as a Chamber composed of:

    Peer Lorenzen, President,
    Karel Jungwiert,
    Rait Maruste,
    Mark Villiger,
    Isabelle Berro-Lefèvre,
    Zdravka Kalaydjieva, judges,
    Mykhaylo Buromenskiy, ad hoc judge,
    and Claudia Westerdiek, Section Registrar,


    Having regard to the above application lodged on 12 December 2003,

    Having deliberated, decides as follows:

    THE FACTS

    The application was lodged by Ms Lidiya Viktorovna Makarova, a Ukrainian national who was born in 1979 and lives in Simferopol, Ukraine. She is represented before the Court by Mr A. V. Lesovoy, a lawyer practising in Simferopol. The Ukrainian Government (“the Government”) are represented by their Agent, Mr I. Zaytsev.

    The applicant’s complaints under Article 5 were communicated to the Government, who submitted their observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was, invited to submit her own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter.

    By letter dated 23 September 2009, sent by registered post, the applicant’s representative was notified that the period allowed for submission of the applicant’s observations had expired on 8 August 2009 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s representative’s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike a case out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. The applicant’s representative received this letter on 29 September 2009. However, no response has been received.

    THE LAW

    The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue her application, within the meaning of Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine, the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols which require the continued examination of the case.

    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.
