Poland (no. 51669/99)       Friendly settlement Renata Pałys, a Polish national, alleged that, as a result of medical negligence while she was giving birth in Wrocław Regional Hospital in 1983, she had to undergo several gynaecological operations, that she could not work and that she had been declared disabled. On 14 January 1986 she filed an action for damages against the hospital. She complained about the length of the proceedings, which appear to be still pending. She relied on Article 6 § 1.   The case has been struck out following a friendly settlement in which a global sum of 25,000 Polish zlotys is to be paid for any non-pecuniary and pecuniary damage, costs and expenses.

On 1 November 1998 a full-time Court was established, replacing the original two-tier system of a part-time Commission and Court. [1] Under Article 43 of the European Convention on Human Rights, within three months from the date of a Chamber judgment, any party to the case may, in exceptional cases, request that the case be referred to the 17-member Grand Chamber of the Court.   In that event, a panel of five judges considers whether the case raises a serious question affecting the interpretation or application of the Convention or its Protocols, or a serious issue of general importance, in which case the Grand Chamber will deliver a final judgment. If no such question or issue arises, the panel will reject the request, at which point the judgment becomes final. Otherwise Chamber judgments become final on the expiry of the three-month period or earlier if the parties declare that they do not intend to make a request to refer.
