Gediminas Sagatys, President,
Stéphane Pisani,
Juha Lavapuro, judges,
and Viktoriya Maradudina, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on 26 November 2019,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The applicant, Mr Ergün Ceylan, was born in 1971. He was represented by Mr G. Alkoçoğlu, a lawyer practising in Ankara.
The applicant’s complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention concerning his right of access to a court and the alleged unfairness of the administrative proceedings, were communicated to the Turkish Government (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant’s representative, who was invited to submit his own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter.
By letter dated 17 January 2025, sent to the applicant’s representative through the Court’s Electronic Communications Service (eComms), the representative was notified that he had not replied to the Registry’s letter of 12 July 2024, requesting to submit comments on the Government’s observations. He was also notified that the period allowed for submission of his observations had expired on 2 September 2024 and that no extension of time had been requested. The representative’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. The letter was downloaded by the applicant’s representative on 18 January 2025. However, no response has 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 10 July 2025.
