Tarpley (Thomas) v. State ( 2014 )


Menu:
  •                 company's letter which formed the basis for the State's restitution request
    and the district court's award. While the judgment of conviction did not
    expressly state who was entitled to the restitution award, the charging
    document listed only one victim and, at the sentencing hearing, the
    district court expressly "impose[d] restitution in the amount of $6,156.60
    to be paid to the victim."     (Emphasis added.) The district court also
    correctly stated, "I can't order [Tarpley] to pay restitution to the insurance
    company, but I can sure order him to pay restitution to the victim."         See
    Martinez, 115 Nev. at 12, 974 P.2d at 135 ("A defendant's obligation to pay
    restitution to the victim may not, of course, be reduced because a victim is
    reimbursed by insurance proceeds."). Accordingly, we
    ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
