hundred and nineteen United States dollars and forty-eight cents). However, the Dominican

Court must evaluate the appropriateness of ordering the defendant State to reimburse the
expenditure incurred to the Legal Assistance Fund.

reimburse the said Fund the sum of US$2,219.48 (two thousand two hundred and nineteen
United States dollars and forty-eight cents) for the expenses incurred for the presentation of
the testimony of one alleged victim and one witness during the public hearing in this case.
This amount must be reimbursed within 90 days of notification of this Judgment.
