44 136. As it has on other occasions,81 the Court orders that the State shall publish in the official gazette and in another newspaper with widespread national circulation, at least once, the chapter on Proven Facts, paragraphs 65, 66, 72, 81, 82, 85, 86, 102 and 113, corresponding to Chapters VIII, IX, X and XI, and the first to sixteenth operative paragraphs of this judgment. The publication should include the titles of the said chapters and omit the footnotes. The publication should be carried out within one year from notification of this judgment. e) Costs and expenses 137. The Court has established that costs and expenses are included in the concept of reparation embodied in Article 63(1) of the American Convention.82 The Court must prudently assess their scope, considering the expenses incurred in both the domestic and the inter-American jurisdiction and taking into account the authentication of the expenses incurred, the circumstances of the specific case and the nature of the international jurisdiction for the protection of human rights. This assessment may be based on the principle of equity.83 138. The Court takes into consideration that Mr. Raxcacó Reyes acted through his representatives in both the domestic sphere and before the Commission and this Court. Therefore, the Court considers that it is equitable to order the State to reimburse Mr. Raxcacó Reyes the sum of US$5,000.00 (five thousand United States dollars) or the equivalent in Guatemalan currency, for costs and expenses. Mr. Raxcacó Reyes shall deliver the corresponding amounts to his representatives, in keeping with the assistance they have provided. XIII MEANS OF COMPLIANCE 139. To comply with this judgment, the State must effect the payment for reimbursement of costs and expenses (supra para. 138) within one year of notification of this judgment; and must adopt the other measures of reparation in the terms of paragraphs 132 to 136 of this judgment. 140. The State may comply with its pecuniary obligations by payment in United States dollars or the equivalent amount in the State’s national currency, using the exchange rate between the two currencies in force on the New York, United States of America, market the day before the payment to make the respective calculation. 141. If, for reasons not attributable to the State, Mr. Raxcacó Reyes is unable to receive the reimbursement of costs and expenses in order to deliver the corresponding amounts to his representatives within the indicated period of one year from notification of this judgment, the State shall deposit the amount in his favor in 81 Cf.
