Commission reduces civil restitution lien to $1,200 for inmate-worker credit
Summary
The commission approved reducing a civil restitution lien to reflect 24 days of non‑inmate-worker incarceration credit at $50 per day, lowering the balance to $1,200.
Marion County commissioners on Sept. 3 voted to reduce a civil restitution lien for a man identified in meeting materials as Hugh (last name variably pronounced in the record). County attorneys presented the case noting the individual had time served and inmate-worker time that could offset the lien balance.
The board voted to reduce the balance to reflect 24 days at $50 per day, for a total of $1,200 due to the county. Motion: commissioner Stone; second: commissioner MacLean. Commissioners discussed procedural expectations and noted they would prefer the applicant be present when possible, but the reduction was approved unanimously.
Why it matters: The action adjusts a lien balance to account for time served and inmate-worker credit where the county’s records supported the calculation.
What happens next: The county will record the reduced lien amount and pursue collection of the $1,200 principal owed to the county.
