PROCEDURE

1. The case originated in an application (No. 17472/04) 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 national, Mr Guriy Nikolayevich Bodrov ("the applicant"), on 6 April 2004.
2. The Russian Government ("the Government") were represented by Mrs V. Milinchuk, their former Representative at the European Court of Human Rights.
3. On 16 November 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).

7. The Commissariat did not file an ordinary appeal and the judgment became binding and enforceable ten days later.
8. While the judgment was in force the Commissariat paid to the applicant 39,171.16 Russian roubles (RUB) in respect of increased pension and arrears for the period from 1 January 2001 to 30 September 2003.
9. On 22 October 2003 the Commissariat filed an application for supervisory review of the judgment of 12 May 2003 referring to the lack of grounds in domestic law for increasing the applicant's pension.
10. On 19 November 2003 a judge of the Vologda Regional Court ordered the case to be sent for examination by the Presidium of the Vologda Regional Court.
11. On 8 December 2003 the Presidium of the Vologda Regional Court quashed the judgment of 12 May 2003 and rejected the applicant's initial claim on the ground that the Town Court's findings had been premised on an incorrect application of substantive law.
