A review by Washington County Common Pleas Court could lead to changes in regards to collections from criminal defendants. Those collections are currently handled by the Clerk of Courts office. Washington County Commissioners Chairman Diana Irey Vaughan tells WJPA News that the “court issued an order several weeks ago announcing that they would be reviewing policies and procedures when it comes to collections.” According to Irey Vaughan, “there was a difference of opinion between the Clerk of Courts and the courts over the best procedures to accomplish that goal”. Irey-Vaughn emphasized that there have been no allegations of any wrong-doing. Irey Vaughan says the court, this week, is expected to present its final recommendations as to how to best handle those collections. She says County Commissioners would then pass a resolution on the matter. Irey Vaughan says, years ago, those collections were done through the court system.
