108 c) in the event of a sentence it requests the Court to grant a term of six months for the parties to arrive at an agreement on reparations and costs; d) the Commission did not provide evidence to prove that one or all of the 270 victims would have personally incurred expenses or costs on account of the instant proceeding; e) from the evidence provided it can be concluded that the Workers Union of the IRHE (SITIRHE) covered through donations all the expenditures incurred by the petitioners. The Panamanian legislation provides to labour unions a number of privileges in order for them to be able to perform their duties, such as exempting their income from income tax, and the assurance that, pursuant to the Labour Code, the funds and assets of the labour unions be safe from garnishment; and f) the expectation that the amount of US$ 150,000 (one hundred fifty thousand U.S. dollars) be recognised as legal fees due to Ms. Minerva Gómez “for allegedly having performed work that the Commission was supposed to perform,” is “inopportune.” Furthermore, during the proceeding Ms. Gómez was never introduced as a law professinal who provided services to the parties to the case, but as part of the team of the Centre for Justice and International Law (CEJIL). * * * Considerations of the Court 200. Article 63(1) of the American Convention establishes that [i]f the Court finds that there has been a violation of a right or freedom protected by this Convention, the Court shall rule that the injured party be ensured the enjoyment of his right or freedom that was violated. It shall also rule, if appropriate, that the consequences of the measure or situation that constituted the breach of such right or freedom be remedied and that fair compensation be paid to the injured party. 201. This Tribunal has reiterated in its constant jurisprudence as a principle of international law that any violation of an international obligation that has caused damage carries with it the obligation to repair it adequately.73 202. The reparation of the damage caused by the failure to comply with an international obligation demands full restitution (restitutio in integrum), which consists of the re-establishment of the preceding status and of the reparation of the consequences caused by such failure to comply, as well as the payment of indemnification as compensation for the damage caused.74 73 cfr.
