They were all represented by Ms D. Demirel, a lawyer practising in Ankara. The Turkish Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent. The applicants, public agents, complained that the disciplinary sanctions of warning or reprimand that were imposed on them for taking part in a   demonstration, had infringed their right to freedom of association. They further complained about the absence of a domestic remedy to challenge these disciplinary sanctions. They relied on Articles 6 § 1, 11 and 13 of the Convention. On 5 August 2015 and 16 August 2016 the Court received friendly settlement declarations signed by the parties under which the applicants agreed to waive any further claims against Turkey in respect of the facts giving rise to these applications against an undertaking by the Government to pay ex gratia to each of them 500 euros (EUR) to cover any pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage and a total of EUR 1,850 to cover any and all costs and expenses, which will be converted into national currency at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be free of any taxes that may be applicable. It will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court. In the event of failure to pay this sum within the said three-month period, the Government undertook to pay simple interest on it, 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 cases. THE LAW Given that the applications at hand concern the same facts and complaints and raise identical issues under the Convention, the Court decides to join them, pursuant to Rule 42 § 1 of the Rules of Court. 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 applications. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the cases out of the list. For these reasons, the Court, unanimously, Decides to join the applications, Decides to strike the applications out of its list of cases in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention.   Done in English and notified in writing on 28 September 2017.   Hasan Bakırcı   Julia Laffranque Deputy Registrar   President   Appendix   No. Application no.
