FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The list of applicants is set out in the appended table.

The applicants were represented by Mr J. Giljanović, a lawyer practising in Split.

The applicants’ complaint under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention concerning the delayed enforcement of a domestic decision was communicated to the Croatian Government (“the Government”).

The Court received the friendly-settlement declarations, signed by the parties, under which the applicants agreed to waive any further claims against Croatia in respect of the facts giving rise to this application, subject to an undertaking by the Government to pay them the amounts detailed in the appended table. These amounts will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the Court’s decision. In the event of failure to pay these amounts within the above-mentioned three-month period, the Government undertake to pay simple interest on them, from the expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points.

The payment will constitute the final resolution of the case.

THE LAW

In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
