Session Submission Summary

Community Corrections Fines and Fees - A Multi Site Study

Thu, Nov 14, 8:00 to 9:20am, Nob Hill C, Lower B2 Level

Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel

Abstract/Description

Despite increased scholarly attention in recent years, little is known about the impact of legal financial obligations on individuals under community supervision. As such, this panel presents preliminary results from a multi-site study that examines how fines and fees operate in community supervision. This panel contains three analyses, from varying sites, seeking to understand whether those who owe more fines and fees, and have more non-payment of fines and fees, are more likely to be revoked, abscond, or have their sentences extended.
