The letter states that the fifth chamber of the European Court has made a judgment on the case, which is uploaded on the court internet site and is also attached to the letter. The letter indicates that the Government of Georgia has the right to appeal this decision before October 18, 2019.

At the end of the letter, it is noted: “Please, note that the Chamber decided to discontinue the application of Rule 39 of the Rules of Court (suspension mechanism) in the above application.”
