The Detroit Free Press said Kilpatrick, 39, failed to make a $79,011 restitution payment by a due date of Feb. 19.
Kilpatrick, who is required to pay the city of Detroit a total of $1 million as part of his sentence for obstruction of justice, insists he does not have the funds to make the payment.
