77-27-6. Payment of restitution.
(1) When the Board of Pardons and Parole orders the release on parole of an inmate who
has been sentenced to make restitution pursuant to Title 77, Chapter 38a, Crime Victims
Restitution Act, or whom the board has ordered to make restitution, and all or a portion of
restitution is still owing, the board may establish a schedule, including both complete and
court-ordered restitution, by which payment of the restitution shall be made, or order
compensatory or other service in lieu of or in combination with restitution. In fixing the schedule
and supervising the paroled offender's performance, the board may consider the factors specified
in Section 77-38a-302.
(2) (a) The board may impose any court order for restitution.
(b) In accordance with Subsection 77-38a-302(5)(d)(ii), the board may order that a
defendant make restitution for pecuniary damages that were not determined by the court, unless
the board applying the criteria as set forth in Section 77-38a-302 determines that restitution is
inappropriate.
(c) Except as provided in Subsection (2)(d), the board shall make all orders of restitution
within 60 days after the termination or expiration of the defendant's sentence.
(d) If, upon termination or expiration of a defendant's sentence, the board has continuing
jurisdiction over the defendant for a separate criminal offense, the board may defer making an
order of restitution until termination or expiration of all sentences for that defendant.
(3) The board may also make orders of restitution for recovery of any or all costs
incurred by the Department of Corrections or the state or any other agency arising out of the
defendant's needs or conduct.
(4) If the defendant, upon termination or expiration of the sentence owes outstanding
fines, restitution, or other assessed costs, or if the board makes an order of restitution within 60
days after the termination or expiration of the defendant's sentence, the matter shall be referred to
the district court for civil collection remedies. The Board of Pardons and Parole shall forward a
restitution order to the sentencing court to be entered on the judgment docket. The entry shall
constitute a lien and is subject to the same rules as a judgment for money in a civil judgment.
