Grand Chamber judgment concerning Türkiye

11/07/2022
In the case of Kavala v. Türkiye the Court held that there had been a violation of the Convention.
The case concerned a question referred to the ECHR by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, which is responsible for supervising the enforcement of the ECHR’s judgments, as to whether the Republic of Türkiye has failed to fulfil its obligation to comply with the Chamber judgment delivered by the Court in the case of Kavala v. Turkey in 2019.
Press release Delivery of the judgment
Due to the interruption of the international postal services to and from the Russian Federation and where the only means of delivery of the Court’s decisions and judgments to the applicants is by post, the Court has exceptionally decided to notify the applicants about decisions and judgments adopted by its Chamber and Committee judicial formations after 1 March 2022 in respect of applications against the Russian Federation only via its HUDOC database.

Interim measures amended in cases concerning Poland
10/08/2022The ECHR has decided to amend interim measures previously indicated in the cases of Wróbel v. Poland, Synakiewicz v. Poland, Niklas-Bibik v. Poland and Piekarska-Drążek v. Poland concerning four judges facing disciplinary proceedings and at risk of imminent suspension from their judicial functions.
The Court has decided to amend the wording of the interim measure previously granted in the above cases which now covers any body competent under the domestic law to deal with the applicants’ cases.
The Court took this decision in the light of new developments, namely that the Disciplinary Chamber of the Supreme Court referred to in the previous interim measure in the case of Wróbel v. Poland has recently been replaced by a new Chamber of Professional Responsibility of the Supreme Court (Izba Odpowiedzialności Zawodowej Sądu Najwyższego).
