Poland (no. 27910/07), houses belonging to the applicants or their predecessors in title were at various dates taken under the “state management of housing matters” introduced in 1946 by the communist authorities. Similarly, their property was subsequently made subject to the special lease scheme”, the system of “controlled rent” and restrictions imposed under the 2001 Act, which are described at length both in the Hutten-Czapska pilot judgment and in the main decision in the case of The Association of Real Property Owners in Łódź (see §§ 6-7). B. Relevant domestic law and practice (See The Association of Real Property Owners in Łódź v. Poland , no. 3485/02, §§ 6-38). COMPLAINT The applicant in essence complained about various aspects of the continued restrictions on property rights imposed by the Polish housing legislation, in particular the State control over increases in rent, the limitations on the termination of leases and eviction that reduced their ability to use their property and derive a profit from it in a manner contrary to Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention. THE LAW (See The Association of Real Property Owners in Łódź v. Poland , no. 3485/02, §§ 40-90). For these reasons, the Court unanimously Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
