arising from the proceedings before this Court. 157 Given that the representative did not submit a pleadings and motions brief, no specific claims or evidence on costs and expenses have been submitted, and therefore it is not appropriate to order their payment. 161. At the stage of monitoring compliance with this judgment, the Court may order the State to reimburse the victims or their representatives for any reasonable expenses incurred during that procedural stage. 158 H. Method of compliance with the payments ordered 162. The State shall pay compensation for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage as established in this judgment directly to the persons indicated herein, within one year of notification of this judgment. 163. If the beneficiary is deceased or dies before he or she receives the respective compensation, this shall be delivered directly to their heirs, in accordance with the applicable domestic law. 164. The State shall comply with its monetary obligations by payment in United States dollars, or the equivalent in national currency, using for the respective calculation the market exchange rate published or calculated by a relevant banking or financial authority, on the date closest to the day of payment. 165. If, for reasons that can be attributed to the beneficiaries of the compensation or their heirs, it is not possible to pay the amounts established within the time frame indicated, the State shall deposit said amounts in their favor, in an account or certificate of deposit in a solvent Guatemalan financial institution, in United States dollars, and on the most favorable financial terms permitted by banking law and practice. If the corresponding compensation is not claimed within ten years, the amounts shall be returned to the State with the accrued interest. 166. The amounts established in this judgment as compensation for pecuniary and nonpecuniary damage shall be delivered in full to the beneficiaries, namely the persons listed in the Single Annex, as established in this judgment, without any deductions arising from possible charges or taxes. 167. If the State should fall into arrears, it shall pay interest on the amount owed corresponding to banking interest on arrears in the Republic of Guatemala. Cf.
