Can you get off probation with restitution left to pay?
Probation can be terminated without deference to the owed restitution on the books.

However, I would caution this person to continue payments and work with the court to resolve the owed monies in a timely manner as the judge can order further probation if the person fails to meet restitution guidelines or pay the monies.
