s 177F Application of proceeds of property subject to deprivation order
(1) This section applies where the Court Martial or the Service Civilian Court makes a deprivation order in relation to any property and— (a) the offence was one which resulted in a person suffering personal injury, loss or damage, or (b) any such offence is taken into consideration by the court in determining sentence. (2) The court may also make an order that any proceeds which— (a) arise out of the disposal of the property, and (b) do not exceed a sum specified by the court, are to be paid to the person. (3) A court may make an order under this section only if satisfied that, but for the inadequacy of the offender’s means, it would have made a service compensation order under which the offender would have been required to pay compensation of an amount not less than the amount specified under subsection (2)(b). (4) An order under this section has no effect— (a) before the end of the 6 month period mentioned in section 94A(3)(a), or (b) if a successful claim by a person claiming to be the owner of the property has been made by virtue of section 94(2)(a).
