The applicant initiated compensatory proceedings in domestic courts and obtained an acknowledgement of the excessive length and compensation of 10,000 Moldovan lei (the equivalent of 540 euros at the time).

QUESTIONS TO THE PARTIES 1.     Can the applicant claim to be a victim of a breach of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention in view of the size of the compensation for non-pecuniary damage awarded to him in the domestic proceedings ( Avram and Others v.   Moldova , no. 41588/05, § 30, 5 July 2011)?   2.     Was the length of the civil proceedings in the present case in breach of the “reasonable time” requirement of Article   6 §   1 of the Convention ( Matei and Tutunaru v. Moldova , no. 19246/03, 27 October 2009)?
