Re: Restitution judgement
Contact the state attorney's office that prosecuted the case. That office may be able to assist you in collecting on the judgment without the need for you to retain private counsel to pursue collection which would cost you at least a good percentage of whatever sums may be collected on your behalf from the robber/debtor.
