What is the test for making restitution under the Vehicle Accident Prevention Act?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Ward, 862 F.2d 875 (9th Cir. 1988):

The VWPA allows a trial judge to order a defendant to make restitution "to any victim of the offense." 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3579(a)(1) (1982). The term "offense" has been construed to "require that the defendant make restitution only to victims of the offense for which he was convicted." United States v. Durham, 755 F.2d 511, 512 (6th Cir.1985).
