37 e) the expenses incurred by the Bulacio family for the funeral and to buy the grave at the cemetery, estimated at US$3,000.00 (three thousand United States dollars), plus interest. Arguments of the Commission 82. With respect to pecuniary damage, the Commission pointed out that: a) while a civil lawsuit is ongoing with respect to financial compensation due for violations suffered by the victim, it depends on a criminal case in which no judgment has been issued after twelve years; therefore, it has not been possible to attain a judgment “that satisfies the requirements of justice;” on the other hand, the domestic civil lawsuit “will hardly satisfy said requirements,” taking into account that the facts have been classified merely as arbitrary detention; b) estimation of the damage in cases pertaining to a violation of the right to life refers to income that the victim would have obtained during his working life. In this regard, the amount to be paid for Walter David Bulacio’s lost income derives from an average of what the victim earned at the time of the facts as a caddie in a golf course, that is US$400.00 (four hundred United States dollars) monthly, to which salary it is necessary to add an annual complementary salary during the rest of his probable lifespan, an amount which, after applying the criteria established by the Court for this item, adds up to US$201,240.00 (two hundred and one thousand two hundred and forty United States dollars); c) the Court must take into account that it was foreseeable that Walter David Bulacio would obtain a secondary school diploma and enter the university, and that as an attorney his income would have increased approximately US$200.00 (two hundred United States dollars), and therefore US$100,620.00 (one hundred thousand six hundred and twenty United States dollars) should be added to the lost earnings, which would be part of compensation for “lost chance;” and d) the next of kin incurred other expenses: US$1,000.00 (one thousand United States dollars) to cover funeral expenses for the victim, and US$2,000.00 (two thousand United States dollars) to cover expenses for a grave at the cemetery. The respective interest must be added to the aforementioned amounts. Arguments of the State 83. With respect to the requests made by the representatives of the next of kin of the victim and the Commission, the State argued that: a) there is an ongoing civil lawsuit under domestic jurisdiction in which the family of the victim has claimed damages derived from the case; if the Court sets pecuniary reparations, this would involve “discontinuance of the local action;”
