Restitution court reports $208,797 collected; 46 participants currently supervised
Summary
Judge Nordstrand told the council his restitution court has enrolled 46 participants (35 active) and has increased total collections from about $140,272 last October to $208,797, with more than $1 million in restitution orders under supervision.
Judge Nordstrand provided detailed results from the restitution court, reporting that 46 participants are currently enrolled (35 active, 10 with outstanding warrants and one in prison). He said 40 people have completed the program since 2022 with 32 successful completions and that total payments collected had risen from $140,272 last October to $208,797.
Nordstrand said the court supervises more than $1,000,000 in restitution orders and described the operational model: periodic courtroom appearances to check progress, agent support for day-to-day follow-up, and graduation ceremonies when participants complete their obligations. "We presently have 46 participants. 35 are active because 10 are in warrant status," Nordstrand said. He added judges in neighboring counties have adopted similar restitution-court models.
