111 [standards]: a) discharge in 2009”; b) “rank of Colonel”; c) “[t]ime of [s]ervice of 36 years and 6 months”; d) “life expectancy of approximately 72 years”; e) “existence of an injury, of an emotional and not patrimonial nature.” 154. On the other hand, the Court recalls that the representatives noted, pursuant to that expressed by the State, that at the domestic level a sum of payment had not been established for the victim’s compensation and that the calculation had been done by the ISSFA, in which the victim still owed said institution the sum of US$6.076.00 (six thousand and six dollars of the United States of America), for individual and employer contributions since the declaration of unconstitutionality of the decrees of suspension and discharge until the effective reinstatement to active service of Mr. Mejía Idrovo, which was also expressed by the State in the public hearing. Nevertheless, the Court considers that these declarations cannot invalidate the documentary evidence and the written comments of the State in the proceeding before the Commission and the Court where Ecuador expresses, explicitly and repeatedly, that the “total sum recognized for pecuniary damage is of [US]$194,895.81.” This position has been confirmed by the State in the final written arguments submitted to this Court on March 28, 2011. 155. Moreover, the Court notes that the Minister of Defense –Land Forces- paid off the amount of US$570,772.86 (five hundred and seventy thousand, seven hundred and seventy-two dollars of the United States of American with eighty-six cents), in favor of the ISSFA in order to allow for the conditions of reinstatement of Mr. Mejía Idrovo112 to active service. Nevertheless, even though the State has not explicitly addressed this point, the Court considers that it is clear from the case file that to date, no payment, has been, with or without the ISSFA, made directly in favor of the victim. 156. In consideration of the agreement between the parties of the amount established by the State itself as reparation of the pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages suffered by the victim, the Court, in the present case, deems it pertinent to establish the amount of US$ 358,033.59 (three hundred and fifty-eight thousand, thirty-three dollars of the United States of America and fifty-nine cents), proposed by Ecuador, calculated until June 2009. Subsequently, the State provided new information, 113 which included that regarding the period between June 2009 and September 2010, until Mr. Mejía Idrovo’s reinstatement in the armed forces.
