Book Synopsis Fines and Restitution in Federal Courts by : Maxwell R. Silverstein
Download or read book Fines and Restitution in Federal Courts written by Maxwell R. Silverstein and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited government report discusses federal offenders who were ordered to pay criminal fines and victim restitution. The objectives of this report are to: identify the percentage of offenders who were ordered to pay fines or restitution in fiscal year 1997 and those who were not, identify differences across judicial circuits and districts in the percent of offenders who were ordered to pay fines or restitution and those who were not, and provide officials' opinions about possible reasons for those differences. Also documented are changes in the rate at which offenders were ordered to pay restitution before and after the Mandatory Victims Restitution Act in 1996. In establishing the United States Sentencing Commission, Congress sought uniformity in sentencing by narrowing the wide disparity in sentences imposed for similar criminal offences committed by similar offenders. However, this report calls into question whether that goal is actually achieved and assesses the possibilities for its attainment.

Book Synopsis Fines and Restitution by : David Alexander
Download or read book Fines and Restitution written by David Alexander and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1998-06-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individuals convicted of a federal crime can be ordered by the court to pay a fine or restitution at sentencing. Offenders should pay their court-ordered fines and restitution as a lump-sum payment. If it cannot be made, installment payments are to be made. This report studies orders of fines and restitution imposed on federal criminal offenders. It (1) identifies guidance available to probation officers on how to determine payment schedules for offenders who received orders to pay fines to the government and restitution to their victims, and (2) assesses how offenders' payment schedules were actually determined while under court supervision.
Book Synopsis Fines and Restitutions in Federal Criminal Cases by : Peter N. Allerton
Download or read book Fines and Restitutions in Federal Criminal Cases written by Peter N. Allerton and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restitution is the act of restoring an individual or entity in whole or in part to the lost circumstances they might have once enjoyed. In a federal criminal context, it is the order of a sentencing court directing a defendant to reimburse or otherwise compensate the victims of his crimes. Restitution is based on the losses suffered by the victims of a crime. Neither the defendant's financial condition at the time of sentencing or his future economic prospects figure in the amount of restitution awarded. Consequently, in some cases the amount of restitution ordered may exceed what the defendant can ever reasonably be expected to pay, particularly in the case of mandatory restitution. Nevertheless, there have been suggestions that in other instances insufficient restitution has been ordered or collected because of the particularities of restitution law.

Download or read book A Pound of Flesh written by Alexes Harris and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2016-06-08 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over seven million Americans are either incarcerated, on probation, or on parole, with their criminal records often following them for life and affecting access to higher education, jobs, and housing. Court-ordered monetary sanctions that compel criminal defendants to pay fines, fees, surcharges, and restitution further inhibit their ability to reenter society. In A Pound of Flesh, sociologist Alexes Harris analyzes the rise of monetary sanctions in the criminal justice system and shows how they permanently penalize and marginalize the poor. She exposes the damaging effects of a little-understood component of criminal sentencing and shows how it further perpetuates racial and economic inequality. Harris draws from extensive sentencing data, legal documents, observations of court hearings, and interviews with defendants, judges, prosecutors, and other court officials. She documents how low-income defendants are affected by monetary sanctions, which include fees for public defenders and a variety of processing charges. Until these debts are paid in full, individuals remain under judicial supervision, subject to court summons, warrants, and jail stays. As a result of interest and surcharges that accumulate on unpaid financial penalties, these monetary sanctions often become insurmountable legal debts which many offenders carry for the remainder of their lives. Harris finds that such fiscal sentences, which are imposed disproportionately on low-income minorities, help create a permanent economic underclass and deepen social stratification. A Pound of Flesh delves into the court practices of five counties in Washington State to illustrate the ways in which subjective sentencing shapes the practice of monetary sanctions. Judges and court clerks hold a considerable degree of discretion in the sentencing and monitoring of monetary sanctions and rely on individual values—such as personal responsibility, meritocracy, and paternalism—to determine how much and when offenders should pay. Harris shows that monetary sanctions are imposed at different rates across jurisdictions, with little or no state government oversight. Local officials’ reliance on their own values and beliefs can also push offenders further into debt—for example, when judges charge defendants who lack the means to pay their fines with contempt of court and penalize them with additional fines or jail time. A Pound of Flesh provides a timely examination of how monetary sanctions permanently bind poor offenders to the judicial system. Harris concludes that in letting monetary sanctions go unchecked, we have created a two-tiered legal system that imposes additional burdens on already-marginalized groups.

Book Synopsis Economic Sanctions in Criminal Justice by : R. Barry Ruback
Download or read book Economic Sanctions in Criminal Justice written by R. Barry Ruback and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Justice is expensive. So is injustice. These kinds of judgments are usually made in terms of money, and an economic focus makes sense in the context of criminal law and procedure, since money has long played a role in how society deals with unlawful behavior. These economic sanctions, the court-imposed financial obligations that follow a criminal conviction, are useful because they apply a metric that is understood by everyone. The notion of using money as a means of resolving criminal and civil problems goes back almost four thousand years, to the Code of Hammurabi (Van Ness, 1990), and there are several Biblical injunctions regarding payment after crimes. In the Middle Ages, victims were entitled to compensation for injuries (adjusted for their rank in society), and by the twelfth century, the king was entitled to a fee for administering the system (Klein, 1997)"--
