Cases | 2006-Ohio-4602(Ohio Ct. App. 2006) | 2018

The defendant pled guilty to disorderly conduct and no contest to criminal damaging in connection with the defendant’s destruction of her sister’s furniture during an argument. The defendant was ordered to pay $6,510 in restitution. The defendant appealed, arguing the amount of restitution was improper as it was not supported by evidence. The appellate court found the amount was based on an invoice provided by the victim at the sentencing hearing and that on such evidence the trial court may rely in determining the amount of restitution owed by the defendant. The order of restitution was affirmed.
