BECAUSE DEFENDANT OBJECTED TO THE AMOUNT OF RESTITUTION A HEARING TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT SHOULD HAVE BEEN HELD (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing County Court, determined, because the defendant objected to the restitution-amount, a hearing to determine the amount was required:

“‘Before a defendant may be directed to pay restitution a hearing must be held if either: (1) the defendant objects to the amount of restitution and the record is insufficient to establish the proper amount; or (2) the defendant requests a hearing'” … .

Here, the defendant objected to the amount of restitution payable to the complainant, and the record was insufficient to establish the value of damages to the complainant’s property in the amount of $7,630 … . People v Jensen, 2022 NY Slip Op 03250, Second Dept 5-18-22

Practice Point: Where a defendant objects to the amount of restitution and the record is insufficient to establish the proper amount, a hearing must be held.
