Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Unless complete restitution was made
while the parolee was incarcerated, the Board shall impose as a condition of
parole, in appropriate circumstances, a requirement that the parolee make
restitution to the person or persons named in the statement of parole
conditions, including restitution to a governmental entity for expenses related
to extradition, at the times specified in the statement unless the Board finds
that restitution is impracticable. The amount of restitution must be the amount
set by the court pursuant to NRS 176.033 .
In appropriate circumstances, the Board shall include as a condition of parole
that the parolee execute an assignment of wages earned by the parolee while on
parole to the Division for restitution.
2. All money received by the Division for
restitution must be deposited with the State Treasurer for credit to the
Restitution Trust Fund which is hereby created.
3. The Division shall make pro rata
payments from the money received from the parolee to each person to whom the
restitution was ordered pursuant to NRS
176.033 . Such a payment must be made not less than once each fiscal year.
Any money received from the parolee that is remaining at the end of each fiscal
year must be paid at that time in pro rata payments to each person to whom the
restitution was ordered. A final pro rata payment must be made to such persons
when the parolee pays the entire restitution owed.
4. A person to whom restitution was
ordered pursuant to NRS 176.033 may at
any time file an application with the Division requesting the Division to make
a pro rata payment from the money received from the parolee. If the Division
finds that the applicant is suffering a serious financial hardship and is in
need of financial assistance, the Division shall pay to the applicant his or
her pro rata share of the money received from the parolee.
5. All payments from the Fund must be paid
as other claims against the State are paid.
6. If restitution is not required, the
Board shall set forth the circumstances upon which it finds restitution
impracticable in its statement of parole conditions.
7. Failure to comply with a restitution
requirement imposed by the Board is a violation of a condition of parole unless
the parolees failure was caused by economic hardship resulting in his or her
inability to pay the amount due. The parolee is entitled to a hearing to show
the existence of that hardship.
8. If, within 3 years after the parolee is
discharged from parole, the Division has not located the person to whom the
restitution was ordered, the money paid to the Division by the parolee must be
deposited with the State Treasurer for credit to the Fund for the Compensation
of Victims of Crime.
