The applicants’ complaints under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and Article   1 of Protocol No.   1 concerning the non-enforcement or delayed enforcement of “Pinto” domestic decisions were communicated to the Italian Government (“the Government”). In both applications, complaints based on the same facts were also communicated under other provisions of the Convention. The applicant, Ms Anna Scarpati, died after the institution of the proceedings before the Court. Her heirs (see the appended table below) wished to pursue the application. The Government did not object against the locus standi of the heirs in the proceedings. 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 non-enforcement or delayed enforcement of “Pinto” domestic decisions. They further acknowledged that the domestic authorities had violated the applicants’ rights guaranteed by other provisions of the Convention, offered to pay the amounts detailed in the appended table 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 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 Government also undertake to ensure the enforcement of the domestic decisions under consideration in the cases concerned (see appended table) 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 cases concerned 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 firstly takes note of the information regarding the death of Ms   Anna   Scarpati and the wish of her heirs to continue the proceedings in her stead, as well as of the absence of an objection on the Government’s part to their standing. Therefore, the Court considers that the heirs of Ms   Anna Scarpati, as indicated in the table below, have a legitimate interest in pursuing the application. 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 that the heirs of Ms Anna Scarpati have locus standi in the proceedings; 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 18 January 2024.     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 (non-enforcement or delayed enforcement of “Pinto” domestic decisions) No. Application no.
