121. The Commission requested that the Court provide a full reparation to the victims for the violation of their right to freedom of expression, to include moral aspects. 122. The representatives stated that the civil sentences questioned the seriousness and the quality of journalism of the victims, as well as their honesty and responsibility, placing them before society between those journalists who, far from providing information that contributes to the debate and awareness regarding informed political decisions, arbitrarily interferes in the lives of people. According to the representatives, it is inevitable that having to live through a civil sentence had an emotional impact on the victims. Undergoing a civil trial, which can cause serious damage to a person’s assets, also raises personal concerns and suffering. In the case of Mr. D'Amico, aside from the inhibitory effect of the compensation, the emotional impact of the monthly withdrawal must also be considered, for twenty-one months, in his paycheck, which led him to maintain a life with this stigma given this seizure. Based on the foregoing, they requested that the non-pecuniary damage be repaired by way of compensation, in equity. 123. In this regard, the Inter-American Court finds that the issuance of this Judgment, the extent of revoking the domestic decisions in their entirety, and the publication of this Ruling in various media streams, private means as well as those with wide circulation of social and official means, which includes the judiciary, are sufficient and appropriate measures of reparation to remedy the violations inflicted on the victims. D. Costs and expenses 124. As indicated by the Court in prior occasions, the costs and expenses are consolidated under the concept of reparations enshrined in Article 63(1) of the American Convention. 79 125. Although the Commission did not rule specifically on the payment of costs and expenses, it asked the Court to order full reparation for the victims that includes material aspects. 126. The representatives stated that the victims were assisted by private attorneys and had to pay attorney's fees for the opposing party as well as the costs of the domestic proceeding in general. Therefore, they requested that a compensation be regulated that includes, in equity, the expenses incurred in the domestic forum. They also requested reimbursement of expenses incurred by the victims relating to their participation in the public hearing held in this case. Additionally, the representatives said that the victims were represented before the Inter-American System by the Center for Legal and Social Studies, an organization that incurred in ordinary expenses in the processing of the case an amount of U.S.$ 2,500.00 (two thousand and five hundred dollars of the United States of America) to cover, among other expenses, phone, fax, mail, and supplies. Finally, they requested reimbursement of U.S.$ 5,270.80 (five thousand two hundred and seventy dollars of the United States of 79 Cf. Case of Garrido and Baigorria V Argentina. Reparations and Costs.
