Asgarov. 3.     By letter dated 18 December 2017, the applicant’s attention was drawn to Rule 36 §§ 2 and 4 of the Rules of Court, according to which an applicant needs to be represented by an “advocate” before the Court at this stage of the proceedings.

The Registry’s letter of 20 April 2018 was returned undelivered with a note “was not found”. 6.     By letter dated 2 July 2018, sent by registered post, the applicant was reminded that the period allowed for submission of her observations in reply had expired on 1 June 2018 and that no extension of time had been requested.
