Description
1 James E. Goodman appeals from a judgment of conviction for operating after revocation. He seeks reversal of a restitution order for $1,387.94 for Cassandra McClinton, a woman whose car was involved in an accident with Goodmans at the time he was operating after revocation. Goodman argues: (1) McClinton was not a "victim" of Goodmans crime of operating after revocation; and (2) if she was an indirect victim, the State failed to prove a causal connection between Goodmans illegal conduct and the cause of the accident. We conclude the State has failed to prove a causal connection between Goodmans illegal conduct and the cause of the accident. Therefore, we reverse that portion of the judgment ordering restitution for McClinton and remand with directions to issue an amended judgment that does not include the restitution order. We affirm the judgment in all other respects.
