Collections from inmates
Upon the offender’s arrival at the California Department of Correction & Rehabilitation (CDCR), an inmate trust account is established to accommodate monetary deposits and/or withdrawals. It is also designed to track any and all obligations that an offender may have, such as restitution fines and direct orders for victim restitution. For those offenders who have both a fine and a direct order, the direct order obligation will be satisfied first, effective January 1, 2007. Any money deposited into the account will be garnished at 55 percent. This money is applied toward the offender’s restitution obligations.
When a victim contacts the Office of Victim and Survivor Rights and Services (OVSRS), either by completing the CDCR 1707 or by phone, the CDCR verifies whether a court order (required for restitution) is present or not. The court order must state the victim’s name and a specific dollar amount to be paid to that victim.
It is possible, however, while incarcerated, the inmate does not receive any deposits into his/her account and therefore no restitution collections can be made. Unfortunately, this is outside the control of the CDCR.
Money collected from the inmate’s trust deposits is transferred to the Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board (VCGCB) for disbursement to the victim. Disbursements are made in increments of $50 or every six months, whichever is reached first.
Be patient, the collection process can take a long time. Inmates typically make between $0.38 and $1.00 per hour. There are also more inmates incarcerated than there are paying jobs available. Therefore, some inmates may not have a wage-earning job and are unable to pay restitution, unless the inmate receives money from outside sources, such as family or friends.
