In re Marc L.
The minor, Marc L., appeals from the postjudgment order to pay $110,006.40 in victim restitution. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 730.6.) He challenges the amount of the order, claiming it should be offset by (1) the amount of the debt written off by the provider and (2) the amount to be paid to the victim by the insurance carrier that insured the minor. The minors mother appeals from the restitution order to the extent it makes her jointly and severally liable for $25,000 and contends her liability should also be off-set by the amount paid by her insurance carrier.
We agree with the minor that his restitution obligation must be offset by the amount of the debt written off by the provider. Court therefore reverse the trial courts order for victim restitution and direct that it be reduced to $36,856.33.
