    Default Probation and Restitution

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida

    Well just to start this off, I apologize if I posted this in the wrong section. Basically I plead no contest to a grand theft charge and received withheld adjudication (no conviction). I had paid restitution the very same night I was accused but the restitution was given to the local PD for "evidence" as opposed to handing it back to the victim, this was a year ago. I just got put on probation about a week ago and on this paper my probation officer handed me regarding court fees, cost of probation, and restitution, it says I still owe the money I paid to the victim (which is a company) I told my probation officer that this money was handed to the local PD a year ago but she has no record of it, as far as the probation office is concerned, I never paid a cent. My question is, would I have to go to the local PD to pick up some type of receipt as proof of my payment or what? I know they wont just hand me the money to give to my probation officer, at least I don't think so. So how would I prove I paid everything off if it isn't even in the Probation Office's system?

    If the money was held as evidence, you can try talking to the police (or your lawyer) about getting it released from evidence now that your case is over. The fact that you have money held as evidence has nothing to do with your obligation to pay restitution through your probation officer, although obviously if you get the money back from the police you can use it to pay your court assessments and restitution.
