Syllabus

Appellant's 44-month prison sentence for three misdemeanor theft offenses and four, fifth-degree felony theft-related offenses was supported by the record and was not clearly and convincingly contrary to law where the court considered the principles and purposes of sentencing in accordance with R.C. 2929.11, considered the seriousness and recidivism factors listed in R.C. 2929.12, and made the necessary consecutive sentencing findings in accordance with R.C. 2929.14(C)(4). Further, the trial court did not err in ordering appellant to pay his victims restitution as the record reflects the court considered appellant's present and future ability to pay the financial sanction.
