TRADE UNION OF THE CHERNOBYL NUCLEAR POWER PLANT against Ukraine
and 3 other applications
(see list appended)
SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE
In various disputes domestic courts delivered decisions favourable to the applicants. The opposing parties appealed and the judgments were quashed or amended on appeal in ways unfavourable to the applicants.
The subject-matter of the proceedings and references to final decisions of the domestic courts are set out in the Appendix.
The applicants complain mainly under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention that they were not duly informed of the proceedings on appeal and/or of the opposing parties’ submissions in them and were, therefore, not given an opportunity adequately to participate in them, in breach of the principle of equality of arms.
QUESTION tO THE PARTIES
Was the principle of equality of arms, as required by Article 6 § 1 of the Convention, respected during the proceedings in the applicants’ cases?
