Restitution; require first monies collected by court from defendant to be allocated to.

HB 1267 requires that in Mississippi criminal cases, the first money paid by a defendant to the court must be used to pay restitution to the victim. After restitution is fully paid, subsequent payments cover court costs, then assessments, and finally fines. The bill also mandates that courts consider a defendant's future ability to pay when determining restitution amounts. This directly affects defendants in criminal cases and prioritizes victims for restitution payments.
