against Romania

The European Court of Human Rights (Fourth Section), sitting on 18 December 2025 as a Committee composed of:

Anne Louise Bormann, President,
Sebastian Răduleţu,
András Jakab, judges,

and Viktoriya Maradudina, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,

Having regard to the above application lodged on 9 May 2019,

Having deliberated, decides as follows:

FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Mr Andrei-Gabriel Goia, was born in 1994. He was represented by Mrs. M.-S. Dairatani and Mrs. I.-A. Chertes, lawyers practising in Cluj-Napoca.

The applicant’s complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention concerning the lack to access to a court were communicated to the Romanian Government (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was invited to submit his own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter.

By letter dated 8 August 2025, sent by registered post, the applicant was notified that the period allowed for submission of his observations had expired on 18 July 2025 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. Both lawyers of the applicant received that letter on 21 and 22 August 2025, respectively. However, no response followed.

THE LAW

In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention and the Protocols thereto, the Court, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application.

Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,

Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.

Done in English and notified in writing on 29 January 2026.
