The applicants were represented by Mr Kojić, a lawyer practising in Belgrade. The applicants’ complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article   1 of Protocol No.   1 concerning the non-enforcement of domestic decisions given against socially/State-owned companies were communicated to the Serbian Government (“the Government”). Following the communication, the Court was informed that the applicant, Mr Simonović, had died on 23 April 2021. The Court received the friendly-settlement declarations, signed by the parties, under which the applicants agreed to waive any further claims against Serbia in respect of the facts giving rise to this application, subject to an undertaking by the Government to pay them the amounts detailed in the appended table. These amounts will be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the Court’s decision. In the event of failure to pay these amounts within the above-mentioned three-month period, the Government undertake to pay simple interest on them, 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 Government also undertake to ensure the enforcement of the domestic decisions under consideration in the case within the same three-month period, and to pay any costs of the domestic enforcement proceedings. The payment and the enforcement of the domestic decisions in the case concerned will constitute the final resolution of the case. THE LAW The Court firstly notes that Mr Simonović had died before the application was lodged on behalf of the applicants (the relevant date is set out in the appended table). In accordance with Article 34 of the Convention and the Court’s case-law, applications can only be lodged by, or in the name of individuals who are alive. Thus, in a number of cases where the direct victim has died prior to the submission of the application, the Court has not accepted that the direct victim, even when represented, has standing as an applicant for the purposes of Article 34 (see, among many other authorities, Centre for Legal Resources on behalf of Valentin Câmpeanu v. Romania [GC], no.   47848/08, § 96, ECHR 2014). Therefore, in respect of Mr Simonović, the application is incompatible ratione personae with the provisions of the Convention within the meaning of Article   35 § 3 and must be rejected in accordance with Article 35 § 4 of the   Convention. The Court further 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 the Protocols thereto and finds no reasons to justify a continued examination of the application in respect of the remaining applicants. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list in respect of the remaining applicants. For these reasons, the Court, unanimously, Declares the application inadmissible in respect of Mr Simonović; Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases in accordance with Article   39 of the Convention in respect of the other applicants. Done in English and notified in writing on 10 November 2022.       Viktoriya Maradudina   Jovan Ilievski   Acting Deputy Registrar   President APPENDIX Application raising complaints under Article   6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 (non-enforcement or delayed enforcement of domestic decisions given against socially/State-owned companies) Application no.
