67 215. When determining costs and expenses, the Court will not make a decision with regard to the next of kin of Julián Salomón Gómez Ayala, the Center for Justice and International Law and Human Rights Watch/Americas, as they did not submit any requests in this respect (supra 5). 216. Based on the foregoing, the Court considers that, in order to determine the fees of the lawyer, Mark Martel, it is necessary to take into consideration his participation as the legal representative of the next of kin of Anna Elizabeth Paniagua Morales, Oscar Vásquez and Manuel de Jesús González López from the first stages of the case before the Commission, and also during all its processing before the Court. With regard to the lawyers, René Argueta Beltrán and Avilio Carrillo Martínez, the amount should correspond to their subsequent involvement in the case, once this reparations stage had been initiated. Also, with regard to the lawyer, René Argueta, his representation of the Corado Barrientos and González Chinchilla families must be taken into account. 217. In view of the foregoing, the Court establishes the costs and expenses corresponding to the lawyer, Mark Martel, representative of the next of kin of Anna Elizabeth Paniagua Morales, Oscar Vásquez and Manuel de Jesús González López, in the amount of US$20,000.00 (twenty thousand United States dollars); for the lawyer, René Argueta Beltrán, representative of the next of kin of Erick Leonardo Chinchilla and Pablo Corado Barrientos, the Court considers that it is fair to grant him US$2,000.00 (two thousand United States dollars) for this item; and for the lawyer, Avilio Carrillo Martínez, representative of the next of kin of William Otilio González Rivera, it establishes the amount of US$1,000.00 (one thousand United States dollars). XII FORM OF COMPLIANCE The Commission’s arguments 218. The Commission requested the Court to order that: a) Guatemala be obliged to pay the compensatory amounts that are established within four months of the delivery of the respective judgment; b) the compensation be paid in United States dollars or the equivalent amount in quetzales, the Guatemalan national currency, and also that the need to maintain the purchasing power of the compensation be considered, in view of the devaluation and depreciation of that currency; c) the compensation be free of all current and future taxes; and d) in its judgment, it establish that it will maintain its competence in this case until it has been certified that all the measures of reparation ordered have been complied with. 219.
