The applicant’s complaints under Article 14of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention concerning the implementation of the rent-control scheme in respect of his property were communicated to the Government of the Slovak Republic (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits.

By letter dated 14 September 2018, sent by registered post, the applicant was notified that the period allowed for submission of his just satisfaction claims had expired on 27 June 2018 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. The letter was delivered on 24 September 2018. However, no response has been received.

THE LAW

In the light of the foregoing, the Court concludes that the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue the application (Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention). Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine, the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto which require the continued examination of the application.

Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,

Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
