The Colorado Supreme Court announced on Monday it will hear three cases to rein in the confusion that has developed in the wake of its landmark 2021 decision addressing the process for making criminal defendants pay financial restitution to their victims.
Colorado s second-highest court on Thursday warned that prosecutors should be moving faster to determine the financial restitution owed to crime victims, and that trial judges are empowered to move the prosecution along by setting their own timeline for restitution details.
