Restitution Answers Restitution is
reimbursement for losses due to a crime. Once a case is filed, the victim will
receive a packet of letters and information regarding the case, the court system
and process, and restitution. Included in the packet is a restitution form. The
form needs to be completed showing all medical expenses incurred as a result of
the injuries from the crime. Please include copies of any bills as well. If you
have insurance, please indicate that on the form as well. Please include copies
of EOB’s from your insurance company. Restitution is ordered when the juvenile
is found guilty, or pleads guilty. Restitution is ordered for ONLY
expenses the victim is out of pocket, not the insurance company. The juvenile
has 11 months to pay the restitution. The juvenile makes payments to the Circuit
Clerk’s Office, the payments are processed, and the Circuit Clerk’s office mails
a check to the victim for the amount of the payment. *Restitution is not
ordered if the case is not filed or if the juvenile is found not guilty.
