  Having regard to the final judgments in these cases, transmitted by the Court to the Committee on 28 January 2004;   Recalling that the violation of the Convention found by the Court in these cases concerns the excessive length of two sets of criminal proceedings (violations of Article 6, paragraph 1), (see details in Appendix);

and   - general measures preventing new, similar violations;   Having examined the measures taken by the respondent state to that effect, the details of which appear in the Appendix;     DECLARES that it has exercised its functions under Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention in these cases and DECIDES to close their examination.   Appendix to Resolution ResDH(2006)77   Information about the measures to comply with the judgments in the cases of Gonzalez Doria Duran De Quiroga and Lopez Sole Y Martin De Vargas against Spain     Introductory case summary   These cases concern the excessive length of two sets of criminal proceedings (violations of Article 6, paragraph 1). In the first case, the proceedings lasted from 1985 to 1999, i.e. 14 years, 4 months and 5 days for three degrees of jurisdiction. In the second case, the proceedings lasted from 1985 to 2000, i.e. 14 years, 8 months and 2 days for three degrees of jurisdiction.     Payments of just satisfaction and individual measures   a) Details of just satisfaction     Name Application No. Pecuniary damage Non-pecuniary damage Costs and expenses Total Gonzalez Doria Duran De Quiroga 59072/00 - 10   000 € 500 € 10   500€ Paid on 22/12/2003 Lopez Sole Y Martin De Vargas 61133/00 - 10   000 € 3   000 € 13   000 € Paid on 21/04/2004     b) Individual measures   The domestic proceedings are closed.     General measures   On account of the specific circumstances of the two cases, new similar violations of the Convention could be avoided for the future by informing the authorities concerned of the requirements of the Convention: the two judgments of the European Court have accordingly been disseminated to public prosecutors and courts, including the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court. Moreover, the judgment delivered in the first case was published in the Official Journal of the Ministry of Justice, No. 1963 of 15 April 2004 and the judgment delivered in the second case was published in the Official Journal of the Ministry of Justice, No. 1966 of 1   June   2004.   The Spanish authorities consider that in absence of a structural problem concerning the length of criminal proceedings, no other measures are required.   [1] Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 20 December 2006 at the 982nd meeting of the Ministers’ Deputies
