financial restitution
Paying damages back
Financial restitution is money paid to compensate for loss, damage, or injury.
Courts often order financial restitution as part of criminal sentencing, requiring offenders to repay victims: The judge ordered financial restitution of $50,000 to cover the stolen funds.
Unlike fines paid to the state, restitution goes directly to those harmed.
