current financial situation. Although there is evidence in the case file indicating that the alleged victim received academic awards in 2006 and 2007, for which she received a certain amount of money, no evidence was provided indicating that this money remains available to the alleged victim. On the contrary, the evidence provided by the representative reveals that the alleged victim is currently in debt, a situation that would not exist were the amounts of money indicated by the State available. In addition, the acting President notes that it is not necessary to prove "a dreadful economic situation” or “indigence” to access the Victims’ Assistance Fund of the Court. Pursuant to the Rules of Procedure of the Fund, it must be proven that the “economic resources necessary to cover the cost of litigation before the Inter-American Court” are lacking. Therefore, the acting President finds that the objections raised by the State are not admissible, and therefore finds that the sworn affidavit and other probative elements provided pursuant to Article 2 of the Rules of Procedure of the Assistance Fund are sufficient evidence of the alleged victims’ current lack of financial resources. 10. The alleged victim’s request to the Assistance Fund of the Court was filed in order to cover the expenses of translating a document from German to Spanish, photocopying the brief of pleadings and motions, and sending the annexes of that brief to Costa Rica, as well as the expenses incurred for the participation in the public hearing to be held in this case of four witnesses and three "individuals who [would] form part of the legal representation in this case.” 11. Regarding this, the acting President recalls that the Assistance Fund of the Court is formed through voluntary contributions from donors (supra Considering clause 2), and that the limited resources are not sufficient to cover all the expenses incurred by the alleged victims and the representatives related to appearing and presenting evidence before the Court. Based on this, this Presidency must evaluate the request for assistance presented in each case according to the funds available, taking into account the needs for assistance that may be presented in other cases before the Court, all with the purpose of ensuring the correct administration and just distribution of the Fund’s limited resources. 12. Likewise, the acting President notes that as of this stage of the proceeding, it has not yet been decided which testimony offered by the representative will be received by the Court, nor the way in which that testimony will be received. Pursuant to Article 50(1) of the Rules of Procedure of the Court, this decision rests with the Court or its President once the parties have submitted the final lists of declarants that they propose and the right to defense has been ensured, pursuant to the terms of articles 45 through 49 of the Rules of Procedure of the Court. 13. By virtue of these considerations, the President admits the request to access the Assistance Fund of the Court presented by the alleged victim. Based on the resources currently available in the Fund, the alleged victim will be granted the financial aid necessary to present, at the expense of the Fund, a maximum of two testimonies, whether by affidavit or in a public hearing, and for the appearance of a representative at the public hearing to be held in this case. Likewise, the President finds it convenient to postpone the determination of the specific recipients and purposes of the financial aid that will be provided to the alleged victim until such time as this Presidency - or the Court - rules on the admission and relevance of the expert evidence and testimony offered, and the opening of the oral proceeding, pursuant to Article 50(1) of the Rules of Procedure of the Court, in order to be certain of the testimony to be received by the Court as well as the way in which it is to be received.
