He was represented by Mr R.R. Gabdullin, a lawyer practising in Omsk. The applicant’s complaint under Article 3 of the Convention concerning his alleged ill-treatment by State officials was communicated to the Russian Government (“the Government”), who submitted a unilateral declaration on 13   November 2019. The declaration was forwarded to the applicant’s representative, who refused to accept its conditions. On 22 February 2022 the representative was requested to submit until 5 April 2022 the applicant’s observations and just satisfaction claims. No observations were submitted. By letter dated 5   May 2022, sent through the Court’s Electronic Communication Service (eComms), the Court set a new deadline of 20 May 2022 for submission of the observations and just satisfaction   claims. The representative did not activate the eComms account. In the telephone conversation with the Court on 16   June 2022 the representative confirmed his e-mail address. At the same time, he stated that he would “most probably” send the just satisfaction claims on behalf of the applicant by fax. However, no just satisfaction claims have been received by the Court. By letter dated 27 October 2022, sent to the applicant’s representative via eComms, he was notified that the period allowed for submission of his observations   had expired on 20 May 2022 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant party’s attention was drawn to Article   37   §   1   (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. The applicant’s lawyer received that letter on 27 October 2022. However, no response has followed. THE LAW In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention and the Protocols thereto, the Court, in accordance with Article   37   §   1   (a) of the Convention, considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application. Accordingly, the case should be struck 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 15 December 2022.     Viktoriya Maradudina   Darian Pavli   Acting Deputy Registrar   President
