Execution of the judgment of the European Court of Human Rights

Pešková against Czech Republic

The Committee of Ministers, under the terms of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, which provides that the Committee supervises the execution of final judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (hereinafter “the Convention” and “the Court”);

Having regard to the judgment transmitted by the Court to the Committee once it had become final;

- of individual measures to put an end to the violations and erase their consequences so as to achieve as far as possible restitutio in integrum; and

- of general measures preventing similar violations;

DECLARES, having examined the measures taken by the respondent state (see Appendix), that it has exercised its functions under Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention in this case and

Pešková against Czech Republic

Introductory case summary

This case concerns the absence of adequate and reasonable compensation for the privation in 2001 of property acquired under the communist regime (violation of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1).

I. Payment of just satisfaction and individual measures

a) Details of just satisfaction

b) Individual measures

The European Court awarded the applicants just satisfaction in respect of pecuniary damage. Consequently, no other individual measure was considered necessary by the Committee of Ministers.

II. General measures

See Final Resolution CM/ResDH(2007)30 adopted in the cases of Pincová and Pinc and Zvolský and Zvolská against the Czech Republic.

III. Conclusions of the respondent state

The government considers that no individual measure is required, apart from the payment of the just satisfaction, that the general measures adopted will prevent similar violations and that the Czech Republic has thus complied with its obligations under Article 46, paragraph 1, of the Convention.
