Re: Criminal restitution
It is not clear from your question, wht the exact nature of the act that was committed. Needless to say, many such debts might be dischargeable in a Chapter 7 if not challenged by a creditor, or in a Chapter 13.
You need to sit down with an attorney who can review your documentation and evaluate your situation.
Best of wishes to you.
