State v. Hopkins
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine · Decided February 4, 1987 · Clifford, Glassman, McKusick, Nichols, Scolnik, Wathen
520 A.2d 334; 1987 Me. LEXIS 629 (Atlantic Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Hopkins

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM OF DECISION.

Defendant Earl Hopkins appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (Oxford County) revoking his probation pursuant to 17-A M.R.S.A. § 1206 (1983 & Supp. 1986). On appeal, he challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the revocation. We conclude that there was sufficient evidence presented to allow the single justice to find by a preponderance of the evidence that defendant had inexcusably failed to comply with the requirement of restitution because of his failure to make a bona fide effort to acquire the resources to pay.

The entry is:

Judgment affirmed.

All concurring.
