Restitución a víctimas de ciertos delitos en Nevada

Explicación Simple

Si alguien te hace daño, la ley puede obligarlo a pagarte por lo que perdiste. Esto incluye gastos médicos, daños a tu propiedad, y otros costos que tuviste que cubrir por su culpa.

Es como si un amigo rompiera tu bicicleta y, en lugar de solo disculparse, te ayudara a pagar por repararla y por el tiempo que no pudiste usarla.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan es víctima de un robo en su casa. La corte puede ordenar al ladrón que le pague por los daños a la puerta, los objetos robados y los gastos de mudanza si Juan decide cambiarse de casa para sentirse más seguro.
