Mr. H.C. KRÜGER, Secretary to the Commission

Having regard to Article 25 of the Convention for the Protection

of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms;

Having regard to the application introduced on 7 December 1988

by Urban CONRADI against Sweden and registered on 3 November 1992 under

file No. 20876/92;

Having regard to the report provided for in Rule 47 of the Rules

of Procedure of the Commission;

Having deliberated;

Decides as follows:

THE FACTS

The applicant is a Swedish citizen born in 1928 and resident in

Stockholm. He is a retired teacher.

The application concerns the grading system applied in Swedish

schools. The applicant complains that too high grades are being given,

in disregard of the applicable grading principles. Loyal to these

principles, the applicant has given relatively low grades and has, for

this reason, allegedly been subjected to different kinds of decisions,

sanctions and accusations by authorities and colleagues. He invokes

Articles 6, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14 and 18 of the Convention.

By letter of 7 November 1994, the applicant has informed the

Commission of his wish to withdraw the application.

REASONS FOR THE DECISION

Having regard to Article 30 para. 1 (a) of the Convention, the

Commission notes that the applicant does not intend to pursue his

petition. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 30 para. 1 in fine,

the Commission finds no circumstances regarding respect for human

rights as defined in the Convention which require the continuation of

the examination of the application. The Commission, therefore, accedes

to the applicant's request to withdraw his case.

For these reasons, the Commission, unanimously,

DECIDES TO STRIKE THE APPLICATION OUT OF ITS LIST OF CASES.

Secretary to the Commission President of the Commission
