Glorious ReAscent of Yelm shows a couple of Dara Happan scripts. (And amazingly enough, Greg at one time even designed a cursive form of one of the scripts, though I don't think it's ever seen print.)

Well, at least you weren't outlawed...
Ignoring the possibility that the judgement may be tribal (in which case your clan may be ultimately liable), the answer would be your bloodline, i.e. family.
In East Ralios this is defined essentially as a derbhfine; in Heortling society I'm less clear (but I think that's partly because it's less precise). Probably the head of your bloodline (presumably the oldest surviving male) is ultimately responsible. He'd allocate payment among the members of the bloodline (or pay out of bloodline property).
