Matyushkin, Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights. The applicant complained, in particular, under Article 5 § 3 and Article 6 § 1 of the Convention about the length of his pre-trial detention and the length of the criminal proceedings against him. The applicant’s complaints were communicated to the Government, who submitted their 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 28 October 2013, sent by registered post, the applicant’s representative was notified that the period allowed for submission of the observations had expired on 25 September 2013 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 a case out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. No response has been received to date. THE LAW The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue his application, within the meaning of Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine , the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols which require the continued examination of the case. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list. For these reasons, the Court unanimously Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.   André Wampach   Mirjana Lazarova Trajkovska   Deputy Registrar   President
