Blindly paying restitutions?
I have been charged with theft under, mischief under and Break and enter. The crown has made a Barder with me, which states I must pay back 2500 in restitutions. My partner in crime must pay back the other 2500. I feel like this is a fare deal, though the crown nor the company who I've offended is rendering and sort of official report of damages, etc. It's obvious the 5000 dollar verdict was the most we could be charged with, so this is what they've chosen. My question... Does there have to be some type of official report or receipt for me to see before I blindly submit my money? Or am I to be passive and accept it for what it is? I am 18 years old; this is my first offence; I am a student; I must spend my university savings in order to stay free of a criminal record.
