California Court of Appeal
In re Scott H., B236743
On remand from the California Supreme Court, the juvenile court's order of restitution for the victim and his family members entered after the juvenile court adjudged defendant-minor a ward of the court is affirmed, where: 1) Welfare and Institutions Code section 730.6, in light of constitutional mandates, must be interpreted to include derivative victims; and thus, 2) the restitution award to the direct victim's family members was proper.
