Her 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. 4.     On 27 February 2017 the letter sent to the applicant returned to the Court as unclaimed. 5.     The most recent correspondence from the applicant is dated 9   April   2013. THE LAW 6.     In absence of any correspondence from the applicant since 2013 and given her failure to reply to the strike-out warning, the Court considers that the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue her application, within the meaning of 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 its Protocols which require the continued examination of the case. 7.     In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list.
