Reading this article where a crime victim rejected a $200 payment that the court had ordered the offender to pay her made me think: what happens now? Is she obliged to take it?

If she doesn't provide her bank account number, would the offender be entitled to find it out and make the payment anyway?

If he comes by and drops two $100 bills in front of her but yet she doesn't pick those up, would that be considered that he has paid?

Fines and reparation are paid to the court not directly to victims/complainants:

The offender pays the court and the court will send payment to [the recipient]
