Syllabus

RESTITUTION – R.C. 2901.11(A)(1) – ATTORNEY FEES – CAUSATION: The trial court erred when it awarded restitution to the victim of defendant's assault to compensate the victim for attorney fees where the victim hired a private attorney to assist the state in its criminal prosecution of defendant, because the fees were not reasonably foreseeable and therefore were not the proximate result of the offense.
