13 the case.28 The Court decides to admit those documents that are complete or that, at least, permit their source and date of publication to be verified. 35. Likewise, regarding some documents indicated by the parties and the Commission by means of electronic links, the Court has established that, if a party provides at least the direct electronic link to the document cited as evidence and it can be accessed at the time the respective judgment is delivered, neither legal certainty nor procedural balance is affected, because it can be located immediately by the Court and the other parties.29 In this case, neither the other parties nor the Commission opposed or made any observations on the content and authenticity of such documents. 36. In the case of the videos presented by the parties and the Commission, these were not contested and their authenticity was not questioned; the Court therefore admits them.30 37. Regarding the representatives’ request to incorporate into the case file the expert opinions of Toby Daniel Mendel and Eduardo Ulibarri Bilbao in the case of Ríos et al. v. Venezuela,31 the Court recalls that, as established in the order of April 14, 2014, the President found it appropriate “to incorporate into the body of evidence in this case, insofar as pertinent, the expert opinions provided […] because they could be useful for deciding the instant case.” Thus, and taking into consideration the objections raised by the State in exercise of its right of defense, the Court incorporates these documents into the case file to the extent that they may be useful for deciding the instant case.32 38. During the public hearing (supra para. 8) the State, witness José Leonardo Suárez, and the representatives presented various documents,33 copies of which were delivered to the parties and to the Commission, who were able to present their observations. Considering those documents useful for deciding this case, the Court admits the documents provided during the public hearing as evidence pursuant to Article 58 of the Rules of Procedure. 39. The State and the representatives submitted certain documentation with their final written arguments, in response to the requests for helpful information and evidence made by the Court’s judges at the conclusion of the public hearing in this case (supra para. 10). The admissibility of the information and documentation requested was not contested, and its authenticity and veracity was not questioned. Consequently, under Article 58(b) of the Rules of Procedure, the Court finds it appropriate to admit the documents provided by the representatives and the State, which had been requested by the Court’s judges or its President as helpful evidence. 28 Cf.
