The applicants were represented by I. Sullam, a lawyer practising in Milan. The applicants’ complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article   1 of Protocol No. 1 concerning the application of retrospective legislation (Article 1 § 218 of Law no. 266/2005 of 23   December 2005) to pending national proceedings were communicated to the Italian Government (“the Government”). The Government submitted a declaration with a view to resolving the issues raised by these complaints. They further requested the Court to strike out the applications. The Government acknowledged the violation of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1. They offered to pay forty percent of the sums awarded by the first-instance judgments detailed in the appended table, if not already enforced, and invited the Court to strike the applications out of the list of cases in accordance with Article   37 §   1   (c) of the Convention. The Court also notes that the Government proposed to pay 71.43   euros (EUR) per application for costs and expenses, plus any tax that may be chargeable to the applicants. The amounts would 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 undertook 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 payment will constitute the final resolution of the cases. The applicants informed the Court that they agreed to the terms of the declarations. THE LAW Having regard to the similar subject matter of the applications, the Court finds it appropriate to examine them jointly in a single decision. The Court finds that, following the applicants’ express agreement to the terms of the declaration made by the Government, the cases should be treated as a friendly settlement between the parties. It therefore 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 the 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 5 October 2023.     Viktoriya Maradudina   Krzysztof Wojtyczek   Acting Deputy Registrar   President APPENDIX List of applications raising complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 (Legislative interference)   No. Application no.
