12 seventy-four dollars of the United States of America and fifty-eight cents) for other telephone expenses; and d. the expenses for the treatment of Samuel Blake, incurred by the family, which to this date total US$96,470.00 (ninety-six thousand, four hundred seventy dollars of the United States of America, as well as US$30,000.00 (thirty thousand dollars of the United States of America) to cover his future treatment. They also stated that Samuel Blake received psychiatric treatment and he was prescribed medications for the acute depression that he suffered, for which they spent approximately US$12,000.00 (twelve thousand dollars of the United States of America). Likewise, the family procured the assistance of specialists to treat the trauma that they suffered as a result of the death of Mr. Nicholas Blake. Consequently, they requested the amount of US$138,470.00 (one hundred thirty-eight thousand, four hundred seventy dollars of the United States of America) for medical treatment. To these expenses are added the expenses related to the proceedings before the Inter-American system, which will be referred to in the respective chapter (infra 66). The Court observes that the total of the amounts listed does not concur with the total amount initially requested by the injured party in its brief on reparations, nor with the amount indicated in the public hearing; nevertheless, this mathematical error is irrelevant to the judgment, for which the Court will separately consider each of the types of expenses mentioned above. 45.

For its part, Guatemala stated that the claims for material injury can not go forward, because the Court did not declare that there was a violation of Article 4 of the Convention, and it has not been proved that there are persons who depended economically on Mr. Nicholas Blake who could have suffered economic detriment. It added that the reparation of material injury is the right of the victim and of the dependents, and that, consequently, it can not be extended to other persons who do not have the status of victim or dependent, and that neither the parents nor the brothers of Mr. Nicholas Blake proved a dependent economic relationship to him. 47. The Court rejects the injured party’s claim that the Court order the payment of US$1,161,949.00 (one million one hundred sixty-one thousand, nine hundred forty-nine dollars of the United States of America) or US$1,329,367.00 (one million three hundred twenty-nine thousand, three hundred sixty-seven dollars of the United States of America), since, as a consequence of the holding in the judgment on the merits, the amount of reparations in the present case must be limited to those
