Cases | 2004-Ohio-3454(Ohio Ct. App. 2004) | 2018

The defendant was convicted of aggravated burglary, aggravated robbery, kidnapping, and rape following a home invasion rape where he also stole cash and jewelry from the victim. At sentencing, the defendant was ordered to pay an unspecified amount of restitution. The defendant appealed, arguing the order was improper because no amount was specified at sentencing. The appellate court found the trial court failed to determine a specific amount of restitution at sentencing, as required by the authorizing statute. The order of restitution was remanded for redetermination.
