Cases | State v. Stimpson, 563 A.2d 1001 | 2018
The defendant pled nolo contendere to several burglary offenses and was ordered to pay restitution as a condition of probation. The defendant appealed from a portion of the award that corresponded to a burglary incident that was not covered by the plea agreement and for which the defendant was not convicted. The court reversed and remanded for reduction of the award by the amount of damages allocated to the burglary offense, and for entry of a new order.
