Isabelle Bauer · Answer 1

A restorative justice

Explanation:

Restorative justice is a type of response to a crime where the offender and the victim meet to discuss the crime issue and methods of repairing the physical and emotional harm.

A consensus is usually created, where both parties agree to a solution. This can be paying for any damage, apologies to the victims and actions to compensate the committed offence.

Jack entered into a meditation process with the family he stole from, he agreed to pay $500 worth of yard work and to get the door repaired.
