must be incorporated into the file. 17 In addition, the State submitted another document on
which, as indicated, it did not adduce any justification and/or is incomplete, so the Court
considers it inadmissible because it was filed extemporaneously. 18 Finally, this Court has
verified that part of the documentation 19 provided already appears in the body of evidence of
this case, so that it is dispensed with because it has already been incorporated.

Regarding the documents submitted by the representatives in their final written
arguments, the State argued that Annex 1 is "actually a letter signed by Olga Flores Bedregal
and addressed to the Court [...] in which the same arguments presented in the [f]inal
[w]ritten [a]rguments are reiterated"; and that annexes 7 and 8 include an unsigned budget
and synopsis, and a budget issued in English, as their credibility cannot be inferred, they are
considered unnecessary without being linked to the spatial scope of the case. This Court
contends that some submitted documents correspond to records related to the expenditures
incurred in the processing of the instant case, after the submission of the application and
arguments, 20 and therefore, it is appropriate to admit them. With respect to the documents
contained in annexes 3 and 4, 21 they are related to events subsequent to the submission of
the brief of applications and arguments, and the Court therefore admits them in accordance
with Article 57 of the Court's Rules of Procedure. With respect to annex 5, referring to the
letter from one of the nephews of Olga Flores Bedregal, and annex 6 corresponding to its
translation, 22 it was mentioned during the public hearing by Olga Flores Bedregal, and
therefore, it is included in the case file. Lastly, the documents contained in annexes 1, 2, 7,
8, and 9 23 are inadmissible because they have not been justified or requested as evidence by
this Court.
