Roy Lynn Campbell, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals held that a trial court may order restitution in an amount that exceeds the statutory property‑value range for the theft conviction so long as the award is justified by the factual loss, that the restitution order must name the victims and apportion the award, and that the due‑process claim that the restitution exceeded the range is without merit. The court reversed the Court of Appeals' reversal of the restitution recommendation and affirmed the remand directing the trial court to specify beneficiaries and division of restitution. Justice Johnson filed a concurring opinion agreeing with the judgment but disagreeing with the majority's analysis of Hefner.
