Division 1 Court of Appeals

State v. Butcher


 

In early 2016, Jared Butcher plead guilty to domestic violence assault in the fourth degree. The trial court ordered Butcher to pay $45,456.04 in restitution. Butcher appealed and this court reversed and remanded, ordering an evidentiary hearing on the causal connection between the conviction and complained amount of restitution. No hearing was held and restitution continued to be collected as originally ordered. In 2023, Butcher filed a motion for refund payments with interest under RAP 12.8, the court denied the motion, concluding that RAP 12.8 does not entitle Butcher to a refund. Butcher appeals. COA# 865757. King County Superior Court #15-1-04996-4.
