ECHR – Analysis of Statistics 2014

Overview of the Court’s statistics in 2014 The Court’s statistics for 2014 disclose some significant differences when compared with previous years and notably a lower number of incoming cases allocated to a judicial formation. This is partly the result of a new approach to Rule 47 of the Rules of Court, which determines what applicants are required to do for their application to be allocated for judicial decision. However, there is also an indication of a falling off in demand with a lower number of cases coming into the system. This has helped the Court to reduce the stock of pending cases since the number of applications disposed of exceeds the volume of incoming cases.

As the backlog of inadmissible cases is progressively eliminated so the spectacular increases of recent years are no longer achievable. As the Court focuses on other categories of cases, productivity will tend to remain more stable, with fluctuations depending on when large groups of cases are processed and adjudicated.

A. Number of new applications In 2014 56,250 applications were allocated to a judicial formation, an overall decrease of 15% compared with 2013 (65,800). 43,450 of these were identified as Single-Judge cases likely to be declared inadmissible (a decrease of 16% in relation to 2013). 12,800 were identified as probable Chamber or Committee1 cases (a decrease of 11%). It is the first time since 2003 that the number of allocated cases has decreased.

B. Applications disposed of judicially and pending applications 86,063 applications were disposed of judicially, a decrease of 8% in relation to 2013 (93,401). The number of cases disposed of therefore exceeded those allocated by approximately 29,800 (i.e. a monthly surplus of almost 2,500). As a result, the stock of allocated applications pending before the Court decreased over the year, by 30% from 99,900 to 69,900.

C. Processing of applications

1. Pre-allocation

As at 31 December 2014 the number of applications pending at this pre-judicial stage stood at 19,050, a decrease of 13% in relation to the same date the previous year (21,950). The number of applications disposed of administratively in 2014 was 25,100, an increase of 84%. Half of these files were disposed of under Rule 47.

2. Inadmissibility or strike out decisions

In 2014 83,675 applications were declared inadmissible or struck out of the list of cases by a Single Judge, a Committee or a Chamber, a 7% decrease compared with 2013 (89,740). The Single-Judge formation decided 78,660 cases in 2014, a decrease of 2% compared with 2013 (80,583). The number of applications struck out, in a decision or a judgment, following a friendly settlement or a unilateral declaration, increased by 16% in 2014 (2,198 compared to 1,890 in 2013). Friendly settlements (1,696) increased by 15% (1,481 in 2013) and unilateral declarations by 23% (502 compared to 409 in 2013).

ECHR – Analysis of Statistics 2014

3. Communicated applications

Where an application is not on its face inadmissible, it is communicated to the respondent Government. In 2014 7,897 applications were communicated (roughly equivalent to 2013 when 7,931 applications were communicated).

4. Judgments

Judgments were delivered in respect of 2,388 applications (compared with 3,661 in 2013 – a decrease of 35%). A significant proportion of these applications were joined with the result that the number of judgments actually delivered was 891, a decrease of 3%. 209 judgments (in respect of 1,410 applications) were adopted by a three-judge Committee formation. These judgments accounted for 59% of the applications decided by a judgment (75% in 2013).

5. Requests for interim measures (Rule 39 of the Rules of Court)

The total number of decisions on interim measures (1,929) increased by 20% compared with 2013 (1,608). The Court granted requests for interim measures in 216 cases (an increase of 100% compared with 108 in 2013) and dismissed them in 783 cases (4% less than the 818 in 2013). The remainder fell outside the scope of Rule 39 of the Rules of Court. The increase in the number of requests granted can be explained by 110 cases linked to the conflict in Ukraine.

D. Priority policy 2 The essence of this policy is to concentrate more resources on the most important cases, namely the cases falling within the top three categories (“priority applications”). At 31 December 2014 there were 7,386 applications in these categories.

The number of priority applications dealt with at different stages of the procedure in 2014 increased by 32% compared to 2013. 34% more priority applications were communicated to the respondent Governments in comparison with 2013. The number of priority applications declared inadmissible or struck out of the list of cases by a Chamber or Committee increased by 36%. The number of priority applications struck out following a friendly settlement or a unilateral declaration rose from 247 in 2013 to 326 in 2014. The number of priority applications giving rise to a judgment increased by 21% in 2014.

3 Figures represent the total number of applications, including joined applications. The document generally gives round figures. The upsurge in applications allocated in 2002 was due to a change in working methods, transferring much of the screening of inadmissible applications from the administrative, pre-judicial phase to the judicial stage.
