domestically.297 Moreover, in no case can the State view the domestic awarding of monetary reparations, set by domestic judicial and extrajudicial mechanisms, that might result in monetary amounts greater than those stipulated in this judgment as implying a balance in favor of the State that the beneficiaries are obligated to return, 279. The compensation (for both pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages) for Luis Eduardo González González, Óscar Tassino Asteazú, Washington Javier Barrios Fernández and those victims who died before the issuance of this judgment is to be distributed among their heirs, pursuant to the applicable domestic law. H. Method of compliance with the payments ordered 280. The State shall make payment of the compensation ordered for the pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages, as awarded in this judgment, directly to the beneficiaries, within one year of notification of this judgment. 281. If the beneficiaries die before they receive the respective compensation, this shall be delivered directly to their heirs, in accordance with the applicable domestic law. 282. The State shall comply with the monetary obligations by payment in United States dollars, or its equivalent in the national currency, using the exchange rate published or calculated by a pertinent banking or financial authority, at the date closest to the payment. 283. If, for causes that can be attributed to the beneficiaries of the compensations or to their heirs, it is not possible to pay the amounts established within the indicated time frame, the State shall deposit said amount in their favor in a bank account or certificate of deposit in a solvent Uruguayan financial institution, in United States dollars, and in the most favorable conditions permitted by banking laws and practice. If the corresponding amount is not claimed after ten years, the amounts shall be returned to the State with the interest accrued. 284. The amounts allocated in this judgment as compensation for pecuniary and nonpecuniary damages shall be delivered in full to the persons indicated, as established in this judgment, without any deductions arising from possible taxes or charges. 285. If the State should fall in arrears, it shall pay interest on the amount owed, corresponding to banking interest on arrears in the Eastern Republic of Uruguay. IX OPERATIVE PARAGRAPHS 286.
