Description
On May 23, 1997, Lawrence A. Draut (Draut) pleaded no contest to 6 of 53 counts charging that he fraudulently failed to report and remit state sales and unemployment insurance taxes between January 1, 1991, and January 19, 1996. Under a plea agreement, the other 47 counts were dismissed. On August, 4, 1998, the court sentenced Draut to seven years and four months in prison. Additionally, under Penal Code section 1202.4, the court ordered Draut to pay $1,145,186.60 in restitution. At a subsequent sentencing hearing on August 5, the court, sua sponte, reduced the award to $150,000. The People appeal, arguing that the trial Judge erred in reducing the award. We agree. Therefore, we reverse and remand with instructions to order restitution in the amount properly ordered on August 4, 1998.
