S.D. Codified Laws § 23A-28B-24
Current through the 2024 Legislative Session
An award of victims' compensation under this chapter shall be paid in a lump sum. However, in a case involving death or protracted disability, an award may be paid in periodic payments. The department may pay any portion of an award directly to the provider of any service which is the basis for that portion of the award. An award is not subject to execution, attachment, garnishment, or other process. However, an award for compensation toward a related expense is not exempt from a claim by a creditor to the extent that the creditor provided products, services, or accommodations, the costs of which are recognized and included in the award.
