Transfer of the occupancy right

As the appellant did not have the status of an occupancy right holder, nor did she have, at the time of death of her grand-father - the occupancy right holder, the legal status of a member of the family household of the occupancy right holder, which could, possibly, constitute a part of the right to occupy the real property (apartment) – she does not enjoy the protection under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the European Convention and Article II(3)(k) of the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina in respect of her expectation to acquire the property.

There is no violation of the right to property when the competent authorities dismiss the appellant’s request for the transfer of occupancy right based on the concluded contract on life-long support with the occupancy right holder, since they did not establish a shared household. Therefore, taking into account the fact that the appellant has never had the occupancy right over the apartment in question, neither could he expect to acquire that right under the law, he has no “possessions” protected under Article II(3)(k) of the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina or Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the European Convention.
