I have been ordered restitution by the court. Why havent I been paid?
• The number one answer is because the victim has not kept their mailing address current. Per A.R.S. 13-4417(A), If the victim fails to keep the victims telephone number and address current, the victims request for notice is withdrawn. At any time the victim may request notice of subsequent proceedings by filing on a request from provided by the agency the victims current telephone number and address. • The Clerk of the Court has not loaded the restitution ledger into their system. • At the time of the pre-sentence investigation (PSI), the PSI writer was unable to contact the victim and/or the victim did not respond to the officers correspondence and/or to telephone messages. Restitution is left open. • Wrong case number. • Restitution amount reduced from amount originally ordered. • Defendant sentenced to Arizona Department of Correction (DOC) but restitution order not loaded into inmate banking system. • The defendant has not made a payment because he or she is in jail or has abscond
