United States Eighth Circuit

In a case involving restitution to the government for conspiracy to fraudulently obtain federal housing subsidies, a judgment finding defendants liable for restitution to the government for the aggregate subsidies paid during the conspiracy period is affirmed as: 1) the government's actual loss in this type of case is the amount of subsidies paid minus the amount HUD would have paid had defendants timely and truthfully disclosed the relevant circumstances; and 2) the evidence showed no subsidies would have been paid.
