Crump v. Superior Court

(California Court of Appeal) - Petition for writ of mandate is denied. Remanded to consider restitution.

The appeals court held that victims do not have a right to appeal a criminal case judgment, but they do have a right to restitution. However, restitution is only available for crimes where there is an actual conviction.
