Andrejeva ./. Lettland
Auszug aus EGMR, 09.06.2022 - 49270/11
The question of the aggregate periods of employment outside Latvia prior to 1991 with respect to persons not holding Latvian citizenship had to be resolved by means of international agreements, and Latvia should not be required to assume the obligations of another State (for a translation of the Constitutional Court's main arguments, see Andrejeva v. Latvia [GC], no. 55707/00, § 37, ECHR 2009).They also noted that the conclusions made by the Court in the case of Andrejeva v. Latvia [GC], (no. 55707/00, ECHR 2009) were applicable to every "permanently resident non-citizen" of Latvia.
The relevant international-law context has been explained in detail in the brilliant and powerful dissenting opinion of Judge Ziemele in the case of Andrejeva v. Latvia ([GC], no. 55707/00, ECHR 2009).
Introduction 1. To our regret, we cannot agree with the majority that there has been no violation of Article 14 of the Convention, taken in conjunction with Article 1 of Protocol No. 1. In our opinion, after engaging fully with the 2011 judgment of the Latvian Constitutional Court in accordance with good judicial dialogue, the Court should nevertheless have confirmed its ruling in Andrejeva v. Latvia ([GC], no. 55707/00, ECHR 2009) and found that in this case too there has been a violation of Article 14.
The present judgment reverses the Court's judgment in Andrejeva v. Latvia ([GC], no. 55707/00, ECHR 2009), which was based on similar facts.

65731/01 and 65900/01, ECHR 2005-X) it had abandoned the distinction between contributory and non-contributory benefits for the purposes of the applicability of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1. The Government's argument that, from the standpoint of public international law, Latvia had not inherited the rights and obligations of the former Soviet Union as regards welfare benefits, was found to be misconceived in the instant case, as the Latvian State had decided of its own accord to pay pensions to individuals in respect of periods of employment outside its territory, thereby creating a sufficiently clear legal basis in its domestic law.65731/01 and 65900/01, § 55, ECHR 2005-X, quoted in Andrejeva, cited above, § 79, in turn quoted in paragraph 121 of the present judgment).
Among other areas, this general rule applies also in pension matters (see Stec and Others v. the United Kingdom [GC], nos. 65731/01 and 65900/01, § 55, ECHR 2006-VI, and Jurcic v. Croatia, no. 54711/15, § 64, 4 February 2021).

J.D. v. THE UNITED KINGDOM and 1 other application

While the appropriateness of a measure is indeed a necessary condition for its proportionality (see Rasmussen, cited above, § 41, and J.D. and A v. the United Kingdom, nos. 32949/17 and 34614/17, §§ 99 and 104, 24 October 2019), the question in this case is whether the impugned difference in treatment was an excessive means to achieve the stated aim.Although the margin of appreciation accorded to States in the context of general measures of economic or social policy is, in principle, wide, given their ability to appreciate what is in the public interest on social or economic grounds and their direct knowledge of their society and its needs, such measures must nevertheless be implemented in a manner that does not violate the prohibition of discrimination as set out in the Convention and complies with the requirement of proportionality (see J.D. and A v. the United Kingdom, nos. 32949/17 and 34614/17, § 88, 24 October 2019; Luczak, cited above, § 52; Fábián v. Hungary [GC], no. 78117/13, § 115, 5 September 2017, with further references).

BRITISH GURKHA WELFARE SOCIETY AND OTHERS v. THE UNITED KINGDOM
Auszug aus EGMR, 09.06.2022 - 49270/11
In this context, we note that the majority purport to compare the situation of the applicants to that of the Gurkha soldiers in the case of British Gurkha Welfare Society and Others v. the United Kingdom (no. 44818/11, 15 September 2016), in which the Court found no violation of Article 14 of the Convention.The Court explained in J.D. and A v. the United Kingdom that in the context of economic or social policy it had limited its acceptance to respect the legislature's policy choice as not "manifestly without reasonable foundation" to circumstances where an alleged difference in treatment resulted from a transitional measure forming part of a scheme carried out in order to correct an inequality (see J.D. and A. v. the United Kingdom, cited above, § 88; see also Stec and Others, cited above, §§ 61-66; Runkee and White v. the United Kingdom, nos. 42949/98 and 53134/99, §§ 40-41, 10 May 2007; Ponomaryovi v. Bulgaria, no. 5335/05, § 52, ECHR 2011, with further references; and British Gurkha Welfare Society and Others v. the United Kingdom, no. 44818/11, § 81, 15 September 2016).

All these agreements are different; they reflect the outcome of negotiations between different States and regulate situations that have formed as a result of different historical, economic and political circumstances (see Tarkoev and Others v. Estonia, nos. 14480/08 and 47916/08, § 53, 4 November 2010).The Constitutional Court then observed that the applicants, similarly to the applicants in the case of Tarkoev and Others v. Estonia (nos. 14480/08 and 47916/08, 4 November 2010), wished to expand their rights with respect to the amount of pension granted, but this desire was not justified.

In its case-law, the Court has previously acknowledged that there may be valid reasons for giving special treatment to those whose link with a country stems from birth within it or who otherwise have a special link with a country (see Abdulaziz, Cabales and Balkandali v. the United Kingdom, 28 May 1985, § 88, Series A no. 94, and Ponomaryovi v. Bulgaria, no. 5335/05, §§ 54-56, ECHR 2011). - EGMR, 09.10.2003 - 48321/99
SLIVENKO v. LATVIA
Auszug aus EGMR, 09.06.2022 - 49270/11
Indeed, to borrow the words of another Court judgment regarding non-citizens, Latvia is the country "where they had developed... the network of personal, social and economic relations that make up the private life of every human being" (see Slivenko v. Latvia [GC], no. 48321/99, § 96, ECHR 2003-X). - EGMR, 18.01.2001 - 27238/95
Auszug aus EGMR, 09.06.2022 - 49270/11
"That being so, the Court reiterates that, while it is not formally bound to follow its previous judgments, it is in the interests of legal certainty, foreseeability and equality before the law that it should not depart, without good reason, from precedents laid down in previous cases - even if, the Convention being first and foremost a system for the protection of human rights, the Court must have regard to the changing conditions in Contracting States and respond, for example, to any emerging consensus as to the standards to be achieved (see, for example, Chapman v. the United Kingdom [GC], no. 27238/95, § 70, ECHR 2001-I, and Christine Goodwin v. the United Kingdom [GC], no. 28957/95, § 74, ECHR 2002-VI).". - EGMR, 28.11.1984 - 8777/79
Auszug aus EGMR, 09.06.2022 - 49270/11
The circumstances of the case - as well as the subject matter and its background - may certainly be taken into account when determining the scope of the State's margin of appreciation in assessing "whether and to what extent differences in otherwise similar situations justify a different treatment" (see paragraph 183 of the present judgment; see also, among many others, Rasmussen v. Denmark, 28 November 1984, § 40, Series A no. 87; Stummer v. Austria [GC], no. 37452/02, § 88, ECHR 2011; and Molla Sali v. Greece [GC], no. 20452/14, § 136, 19 December 2018). - EGMR, 07.06.2001 - 39594/98

In Martinie v. France [GC] (no. 58675/00, ECHR 2006-VI), where the Court also had to deal with an allegedly narrow interpretation, by the respondent Government, of a previous judgment (namely, Kress v. France [GC], no. 39594/98, ECHR 2001-VI), the Grand Chamber stated as follows:. - EGMR, 27.09.2011 - 56328/07

In cases relating to general social and economic policy questions, the role of the domestic legislature should be given "special weight" and generally be respected by the Court unless it was "manifestly without reasonable foundation" (they referred to National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers, cited above, § 99, and Savickis and Others v. Latvia [GC], no. 49270/11, § 184, 9 June 2022). - EGMR, 25.06.2024 - 20958/14

EXECUTIEF VAN DE MOSLIMS VAN BELGIË ET AUTRES c. BELGIQUE
Toutefois, seules les différences de traitement fondées sur une caractéristique identifiable (« situation ") sont susceptibles de revêtir un caractère discriminatoire au sens de l'article 14. En outre, toute différence de traitement n'emporte pas automatiquement violation de l'article 14. Une différence de traitement fondée sur un motif prohibé est discriminatoire si elle manque de justification objective et raisonnable, c'est-à-dire si elle ne poursuit pas un but légitime ou s'il n'y a pas un rapport raisonnable de proportionnalité entre les moyens employés et le but visé (Savickis et autres c. Lettonie [GC], no 49270/11, § 181, 9 juin 2022).

Not only do they feature in the same provision, but they are set out in a single sentence whose grammatical construction implies such a correlation (see, among other authorities, Lopes de Sousa Fernandes v.

DOGAN v. TURKEY
Rn. 63 The Court reiterates that as a general rule, an application for the reopening of proceedings is not an effective remedy, and, as such, does not interrupt the running of the six-month time-limit, except when it is the only judicial avenue available to the applicant in the circumstances of the case (see Savickis and Others v. Latvia [GC], no. 49270/11, § 132, 9 June 2022, with further references). - EGMR, 02.05.2024 - 35271/19
THE J. PAUL GETTY TRUST AND OTHERS v. ITALY
Rn. 347 As regards whether the above findings suffice to consider that the measure was adopted in the general interest of protecting cultural heritage, the Court reiterates that the notion of "public interest" is necessarily extensive (see, among other authorities, Jahn and Others v. Germany [GC], nos. 46720/99 and 2 others, § 91, ECHR 2005-VI) and that the national authorities are in principle better placed than the international judge to appreciate what is in the public interest (see Savickis and Others v. Latvia [GC], no. 49270/11, § 184, 9 June 2022). - EGMR, 11.06.2026 - 49687/16
CONGREGAZIONE CRISTIANA DEI TESTIMONI DI GEOVA c. ITALIE
Rn. 69 La Cour rappelle ensuite que dans les cas où la Cour examine sur le terrain de l'article 14 combiné avec l'article 1 du Protocole no 1 un grief aux termes duquel un requérant a été privé, en tout ou en partie et pour un motif discriminatoire visé à l'article 14, d'une valeur patrimoniale, le critère pertinent consiste à rechercher si, n'eût été ce motif discriminatoire, l'intéressé aurait eu un droit, sanctionnable par les tribunaux internes, sur cette valeur patrimoniale (voir, parmi d'autres, Stec et autres c. Royaume-Uni (déc.) [GC], nos 65731/01 et 65900/01, § 55, CEDH 2005-X, Molla Sali, précité, § 127, Savickis et autres c. Lettonie [GC], no 49270/11, § 122, 9 juin 2022, et P.C. c. Irlande, no 26922/19, § 53, 1er septembre 2022). - EGMR, 07.02.2023 - 41394/15
JOVANOVIC v. SERBIA
However, only differences in treatment based on an identifiable characteristic, or "status", are capable of amounting to discrimination within the meaning of Article 14. Furthermore, not every difference in treatment will amount to a violation of Article 14. A difference of treatment based on a prohibited ground is discriminatory if it has no objective or reasonable justification; in other words, if it does not pursue a legitimate aim or if there is not a reasonable relationship of proportionality between the means employed and the aim sought to be realised (see Savickis and Others v. Latvia [GC], no. 49270/11, § 181, 9 June 2022, with further references). - EGMR, 09.05.2023 - 53030/19

Thus, as a rule, the six-month period runs from the date of the final decision in the process of exhaustion of domestic remedies (see, for example, Savickis and Others v. Latvia [GC], no. 49270/11, § 131, 9 June 2022). - EGMR, 17.01.2023 - 976/20
