Abstract The year 2017 brought the remarkable number of 24 judgments in relation to individual applications directed against Austria, 16 of which found a violation of the Convention. The pattern of the “usual suspects" in terms of affected Convention rights has widely remained intact. The reported judgments and inadmissibility decisions mostly deal with Articles 6 and 8 of the Convention. As in previous years, the Court specifically reminded Austria that it had already repeatedly found violations of Article 6 due to the excessive length of proceedings.
