United States v. John Cerizo

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

1. A district court may order restitution as part of supervised release, see 18 U.S.C. § 3568, and adjust a restitution payment schedule in light of changes in the “defendant’s economic circumstances,” 18 U.S.C. § 3664(k). The district court didn’t abuse its discretion by requiring Cerizo to pay his underinsured motorist insurance award and unclaimed life insurance award towards restitution as a condition of his supervised release. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 981 (9th Cir 2009).

2. Cerizo’s claim that the district court erred- in denying him bail pending his supervised release hearing is moot. Even if it were not, Cerizo’s long history of dishonesty and ties outside Hawaii and the United States provided an ample basis for denying his bail request. See United States v. Garcia, 340 F.3d 1013, 1015 (9th Cir. 2003).

AFFIRMED.
