Criminal Mischief Charges
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania
I have a question ? I was charged with criminal mischief when I was 17 years old (1993)and I was ordered to pay 600.00, but I refused to pay anything for something I did not do. When I turn 19 and finished trade school I spoke with , I think the probabtion officer and informed him I that I wanted to move to Atlanta and was it ok, he said it was fine. I moved back to Pa 7 years ago and all of a sudden some collection agency the court apparently sold the file to , called and requested I pay 900.00 for the fine. THis has been 16 years ago and my question is . What are the laws for this type of situation? Is this something that is legit

If you didn't pay off your court assessments, then you didn't pay off your court assessments. If you don't want to pay the collection agency, you're free to try to pay off any balance you owe with the court.
