How are fines, court-appointed attorney’s fees, and restitution paid?

0

Fines, court-appointed attorney’s fees, and restitution are all paid for at the Clerk of Court’s window, although the payment arrangements for each may be made differently. A defendant must make a payment agreement for fines with the Clerk of Courts Office, but a defendant must make a payment agreement for court-appointed attorney’s fees and restitution with either the Clerks of Courts Office or Court Services Office, depending on the county. When making a payment at the Clerk of Court’s Office, a defendant must be sure to indicate to what file the money should be applied and what the money is for (fines, court-appointed attorney’s fees, or restitution). A defendant must pay at least $25 per month, and that amount may be more depending on the defendant’s resources and the amount owed.
