Does a defendant have a right to complain on appeal that the restitution orders were improper?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Tapia, C055429 (Cal. App. 3/27/2008), C055429 (Cal. App. 2008):
Defendant made no objection to the restitution orders in the trial court. She therefore forfeited her right to complain on appeal that the restitution orders were improper. (People v. Whisenand (1995) 37 Cal.App.4th 1383, 1395-1396 [objections not raised at a restitution hearing are forfeited].)
