    1. I am surprised you got off probation and still owed the restitution

    2. assuming you did get off probation owing this ( happens sometimes in some places) it then becomes a civil debt that you owe, The person you owe it to, can go to court for garnishment of pay, attach bank accounts and get the governmetn to grab your tax refund.

    You are liable to repay your victim and need to continue to make payments
