This unit was established in 1995 to assist the Circuit Clerk’s Office and the State Probation Officers in recovering past due court costs and court ordered restitution for victims. 
 
When a case is turned over to RRU for collection, the defendant enters into a Restitution Recovery Agreement to establish a payment plan. If restitution is not paid as ordered by the court, the RRU can seek sanctions, including jail time, against the offender.
