The Polish Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Ms J. Chrzanowska of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The applicant complained under Article 3 of the Convention about overcrowding and inadequate living conditions during his detention in Poznań Remand Centre. THE LAW On 15 November 2013 the Court received the following declaration signed by the applicant: “I, Tadeusz Flieger, note that the Government of Poland are prepared to pay me, with a view to securing a friendly settlement of the above-mentioned case pending before the European Court of Human Rights, PLN   9,400 (nine thousand four hundred Polish zlotys) to cover any and all pecuniary and non ‑ pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses, plus any tax that may be chargeable to me. The sum referred to above includes PLN   2,400 (two thousand four hundred Polish zlotys) which is to cover costs and expenses of the proceedings before the domestic courts and which are payable by me to the State Treasury on account of the judgments of the Poznań District Court of 5 December 2011 (case no.   XII C 703/10) and the Poznań Regional Court of 25 May 2012 (case no.   II Ca 326/12). I further note that the payment constitutes redress for the systemic violation of Article   3 of the Convention on account of the conditions of my detention, in particular overcrowding, as identified by the Court in the pilot judgment given in the case of Orchowski v.   Poland (no.   17885/04) on 22 October 2009 (see paragraphs   135 and   147 et seq.). This sum will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court to strike the case out of its list of cases. From the expiry of the above-mentioned three months until settlement simple interest shall be payable on the above amount at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points. I accept the proposal and waive any further claims against Poland in respect of the facts giving rise to this application. I declare that this constitutes a final resolution of the case.” On 14 January 2014 the Court received the following declaration from the Government: “ I, Justyna Chrzanowska, Agent of the Government, declare that the Government of Poland offer to pay to Tadeusz Flieger, with a view to securing a friendly settlement of the above-mentioned case pending before the European Court of Human Rights PLN   9,400 (nine thousand four hundred Polish zlotys) to cover any and all pecuniary and non ‑ pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses, plus any tax that may be chargeable to the applicant. The sum referred to above includes PLN   2,400   (two   thousand four hundred Polish zlotys), which is to cover costs and expenses of the proceedings before the domestic courts and which are payable by the applicant to the State Treasury on account of the judgments of the Poznań District Court of 5 December 2011 (case no.   XII C 703/10) and the Poznań Regional Court of   25 May 2012 (case no.   II Ca 326/12). The payment is intended to provide the applicant with redress for the systemic violation of Article   3 of the Convention on account of the conditions of his detention, in particular overcrowding, as identified by the Court in the pilot judgment given in the case of Orchowski v.   Poland (no.   17885/04) on 22   October 2009 (see paragraphs 135 and 147 et seq.). This sum will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court to strike the case out of its list of cases. In the event of failure to pay this sum within the said three-month period, the Government undertake to pay simple interest on it, from 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 Court takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties. It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols and finds no reasons to   justify a continued examination of the application. 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 in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention.   Fatoş Aracı   Päivi Hirvelä   Deputy Registrar   President
