A DEFENDANT WHO REQUESTS A RESTITUTION HEARING IS ENTITLED TO ONE, EVEN WHERE A HEARING HAD BEEN HELD AFTER DEFENDANT’S FIRST TRIAL (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department noted that defendant had requested a restitution hearing and therefore the court was required to hold one. Defendant’s conviction in her first trial was reversed and a new trial was ordered. Even though a hearing had been held in the first proceeding, she was entitled to a hearing after the second trial:

… [T]he court erred in denying her request for a restitution hearing. It is well settled that where, as here, a defendant requests a restitution hearing, Penal Law § 60.27 (2) requires that one be provided, “irrespective of the level of evidence in the record” … . Once we reversed the prior judgment and granted defendant a new trial, she was “restored to the status obtaining before the initial trial” … and, as a result, it is irrelevant that a hearing was held following the first trial. People v Case, 2018 NY Slip Op 02995, Fourth Dept 4-27-18
