Schuler, a lawyer practising in Salzburg.   In March 1989 the Munich District Court (Amtsgericht), in the course of criminal proceedings concerning offences under the German Foreign Trade Act, issued a search warrant concerning the business premises of the first and second applicants.   Subsequently, in proceedings under letters rogatory, the Salzburg District Court issued a corresponding warrant of search and seizure.   On 4 July 1989 the first and second applicants' business premises were searched and various documents were seized.   The applicants' appeal remained unsuccessful.     COMPLAINTS   The applicants complained under Articles 5, 6 and 7 of the Convention about the search of their business premises and the seizure of their business and technical documents.     PROCEEDINGS BEFORE THE COMMISSION   The application was introduced on 17 January 1990 and registered on 8 February 1990.   By letter of 8 January 1992 the applicants' representative informed the Commission that the first and second applicants are presently being liquidated and that the applicants, therefore, wish to withdraw their application.     REASONS FOR THE DECISION   Having regard to Article 30 para. 1 (a) of the Convention, the Commission notes that the first and second applicant are in the state of being liquidated, and that none of the applicants intends to pursue the application.   Furthermore, in accordance with Article 30 para. 1 in fine, the Commission finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention which require continuing the examination of the application.             For these reasons, the Commission, unanimously,             DECIDES TO STRIKE THE APPLICATION OFF ITS LIST OF CASES.     Deputy Secretary to the Commission    President of the Commission                (J.
