State ex rel. Howery v. Powers

Citations

  • 154 N.E.3d 146
  • 2020 Ohio 2767

Syllabus

The writ of mandamus to reopen sentencing is granted where the crime victim presented evidence that she had suffered economic loss in an underlying criminal matter, but no restitution was granted, and no hearing was held on the matter. The right to restitution under Article I, Section 10a of the Ohio Constitution does not conflict with R.C. 2929.18(A)(1) and therefore, since no restitution hearing was held, this court may grant the writ to reopen sentencing.
