The judgments and decisions in the applicants’ favour were taken on various dates between March 2012 and February 2020. Between March 2008 and April 2023, in proceedings which the above debtors had instituted against their other creditors, several decisions were adopted by the domestic courts with an erga omnes effect towards all their creditors, finding that a final decision against the debtors could be executed only if they had a surplus of assets, exceeding the amount of minimum indispensable assets necessary for the performance of their duties. The amount of indispensable assets was established based on expert reports submitted by the debtors. None of the present applicants were parties to those proceedings. The debtors never reported sufficient assets and, consequently, the judgments and decisions taken in the applicants’ favour remain unenforced. The applicants complain, under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention (except in the application no.   23917/23) and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 thereto, about the non-enforcement of the final judgments and decisions in their favour, and under Article 13 of the Convention about the lack of an effective remedy to have those judgments and decisions enforced. QUESTIONS TO THE PARTIES 1.     Has there been a breach of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention and/or Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention on account of the applicants’ inability to enforce the final judgments and decisions in their favour (see Immobiliare Saffi v. Italy [GC], no. 22774/93, §§ 49 and 74, ECHR 1999-V; Burdov v. Russia, no.   59498/00, §§ 34-38 and 40-42, ECHR 2002-III; Burdov v. Russia (no. 2) , no. 33509/04, §§ 65-70, ECHR 2009; and Kuzhelev and Others v.   Russia , nos. 64098/09 and 6 others, §§ 109-10, 15   October 2019)?   2.     Did the applicants have at their disposal effective domestic remedies for their complaints under Article 6 of the Convention and/or Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention, as required by Article   13 of the Convention (see Burdov (no. 2) , cited above, §§ 96-100)?       APPENDIX No. Application no.
