Search 18 U.S.C. § 4115 : US Code - Section 4115: Execution of sentences imposing an obligation to make restitution or reparations

If in a sentence issued in a penal proceeding of a transferring
country an offender transferred to the United States has been
ordered to pay a sum of money to the victim of the offense for
damage caused by the offense, that penalty or award of damages may
be enforced as though it were a civil judgment rendered by a United
States district court. Proceedings to collect the moneys ordered to
be paid may be instituted by the Attorney General in any United
States district court. Moneys recovered pursuant to such
proceedings shall be transmitted through diplomatic channels to the
treaty authority of the transferring country for distribution to
the victim.
