Establishes an "Administrative Handling Cost Fund" to be used by prosecuting or circuit attorneys for office supplies, postage, training, equipment, employee salaries, and other operational expenses.

Allows courts to set restitution amounts that may be collected from inmates' accounts while incarcerated, and permits prosecuting or circuit attorneys to refer failures to pay restitution as a parole violation.
