Restitution Fines.

AI Summary

The "Restitution Fines" bill aims to establish a system for imposing fines on offenders to compensate victims for financial losses resulting from crimes. The main provisions include requiring courts to consider restitution fines during sentencing, determining the amount based on the victim's losses, and ensuring that collected fines are paid directly to the victims. This bill intends to provide a more structured approach to restitution and enhance justice by holding offenders accountable for their actions while providing some measure of relief for those affected by crime.
