PROCEDURE

1. The case originated in an application (No. 23691/06) against the Russian Federation lodged with the Court under Article 34 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms ("the Convention") by a Russian and German national, Mr Yevgeniy Mikhaylovich Shteyn (Stein <*>) ("the applicant"), on 23 May 2006.
--------------------------------
<*> The applicant's name in his German passport.

2. The applicant was represented by Mr E. Terbalyan and Mr K. Filippov, lawyers practising in Tomsk. The Russian Government ("the Government") were represented by Ms V. Milinchuk and Mr A. Savenkov, former Representative and former acting Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights respectively.
3. On 5 December 2007 the President of the First Section decided to give notice of the application to the Government. It was also decided to examine the merits of the application at the same time as its admissibility (Article 29 § 3 of the Convention) and to grant priority treatment to the application (Rule 41 of the Rules of Court). On the same date, the German Government were informed of their right to intervene in the proceedings in accordance with Article 36 § 1 of the Convention and Rule 44 § 1 (b). They chose not to avail themselves of this right.
4. The Russian Government objected to the priority treatment and the joint examination of the admissibility and merits of the application. Having considered the Government's objections, the Court dismissed them.
