Syllabus

The trial court did not err in imposing restitution, upon remand, in a written entry after a hearing, rather than in open court Baker had notice that restitution would be imposed. The trial court did not abuse it discretion in imposing restitution in the amount of $2,800.00 to the victim. Whether or not the victim abandoned his property, after Appellant destroyed it, has no relation or relevance to his right to restitution. Appellant's vandalism conviction was previously affirmed on her direct appeal, and she is barred by the doctrine of res judicata from asserting that her vandalism conviction is not supported by sufficient evidence. Judgment affirmed.
