FACTS AND PROCEDURE<\/p>\n
Du\u0161anMilo\u0161evi\u0107 was a Serbian national born in 1945 who was living in Kragujevac. He died on 17 March 2017.<\/p>\n
By a letter of 28 December 2017 his representative, Ms B. Rakonjac, a lawyer practising in Kragujevac, informed the Court that his official heirs wished to continue the application in his stead. The Court accepts that the deceased applicant\u2019s heirs, whose names are mentioned in the appended table, have the requisite legitimate interest and standing to pursue the application in his stead.<\/p>\n
The applicant complained under Articles 6 and 13 of the Convention and\u00a0Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 about the failure of the national authorities to\u00a0enforce final court decisions rendered in his favour.<\/p>\n
On 12 September 2018 and 26 June 2018, respectively, the Court\u00a0received friendly settlement declarations signed by the parties under which\u00a0the applicant\u2019s heirs agreed to waive any further claims against Serbia in respect of\u00a0the facts giving rise to this application against an undertaking by the\u00a0Government to pay to them jointly 2,000 euros to cover any and all non-pecuniary\u00a0damage, less any amounts which may have already been paid in that regard\u00a0at the domestic level, as well as costs and expenses, plus any tax that may\u00a0be chargeable to them. This sum will be converted into the national\u00a0currency at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be payable\u00a0within three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by\u00a0the Court. In the event of failure to pay this sum within the said three-month\u00a0period, the Government undertook to pay simple interest on it, from the\u00a0expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending\u00a0rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three\u00a0percentage points. Within the same three-month period the Government will\u00a0pay to the applicant\u2019s heirs, from their own funds, the sums awarded in the\u00a0domestic decisions under consideration in this case, less any amounts which\u00a0may have already been paid on the basis of the said decisions, plus the costs\u00a0of the domestic enforcement proceedings. These payments will constitute\u00a0the final resolution of the case.<\/p>\n
THE LAW<\/p>\n
The Court takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties. It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto and finds no reasons to justify a continued examination of the application. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list.<\/p>\n
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,<\/p>\n
Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases in accordance with Article\u00a039 of the Convention.<\/p>\n
Done in English and notified in writing on 7 February 2019.<\/p>\n
