Does the Attorney General have forfeited an objection to the amount of restitution set by the trial court?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from In re D.W., A128508 (Cal. App. 2011):
D.W. contends the trial court abused its discretion in fixing the amount of restitution. The Attorney General argues that the objection has been forfeited because it was not raised in the trial court. (People v. Brasure (2008) 42 Cal.4th 1037, 1075.) While there apparently is merit in the Attorney General's contention, we have no hesitation in concluding that the amount of restitution set by the trial court was not an abuse of discretion.
