He declared that he had advanced all the requisite court costs on behalf of the plaintiffs and had not received payment of his fees in respect of his clients. With the decisions listed in the appended table, domestic courts awarded legal costs and fees directly to him. Due to the authorities’ prolonged failure to enforce these domestic decisions, the applicant introduced separate sets of enforcement proceedings which, according to the information available in the case files, are still pending. In respect of application no. 42152/23, the enforcement proceedings brought by the applicant have been suspended because of the existence of a garnishee order for tax debts, issued by the entity entrusted with tax collection ( concessionario della riscossione ) under Article 72 bis of Decree no.   602/73 ( pignoramento dei crediti verso i terzi ). A reference to suspension of the enforcement proceedings appears from the documents in the case files also with regard to applications nos. 22603/23 and 4400/24. However, the reason for the suspension is not specified. The applicant complains that the authorities’ failure to comply with the binding and enforceable judicial decisions given in his favour has violated his right of access to court under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention. In respect of application no. 22603/23, the applicant also complains of a violation of his rights under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention. QUESTION TO THE PARTIES Has the applicant suffered of a violation of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and/or, in respect of application no. 22603/23, of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention?   In particular, did the non-enforcement of the domestic decisions impair the essence of the rights protected under of one or both of these provisions ( see Sabin Popescu v. Romania , no. 48102/99, §§ 64-66, 76, 2   March 2004)?   The parties are invited to submit all relevant documents pertaining to the non-enforcement of the domestic decisions, not already in the case files.   No. Application no.
