They were represented before the Court by Mr Gökhan Nurtin, Ms B. Işın Yıldırım and Mr Gencer Hazır, lawyers practicing in Ankara. The Turkish Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent. 2.     The applicants, who were employed by the İslâhiye Municipality (the municipality), were either dismissed or were retired. They subsequently brought separate actions before domestic courts, claiming their outstanding salaries, dismissal indemnities, severance pay and/or other pecuniary rights. 3.     The domestic courts ordered the municipality to pay certain amounts favouring the applicants’ claims. However, when the application was lodged with the Court, the applicants had still not been paid the outstanding amounts in full. 4.     The case was communicated to the Government under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No.   1 to the Convention. 5.     Following the communication of the case, by a letter dated 23   February 2017, the applicants’ representative was requested to submit further factual information. In particular, he was invited to inform the Court about the outcome of the proceedings before the Compensation Commission, set up by Law no. 6384 of 9 January 2013. 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 applicants do not intend to pursue the application. 6.     According to the information obtained from the official website of the Turkish Postal Service, on 3 March 2017 the letter was delivered to the applicants’ representative. However, no response has been received. THE LAW The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicants may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue their 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.   Done in English and notified in writing on 28 September 2017.   Hasan Bakırcı   Julia Laffranque Deputy Registrar   President Appendix N o .
