Criminal Defense
The legislature and the courts in California act to strengthen the rights of victims. In the last few years, the California legislature and the state appellate courts have significantly expanded the right of victims of crime to recover restitution. The changes began with a series of revisions to the California Penal Code, which were then followed by several court of appeal decisions reinforcing the breadth and strength of the new statutory framework. Victim restitution is now such a powerful remedy that both civil litigators and criminal defense counsel must alter their case strategies to protect their clients. The civil litigator who is not familiar with victim restitution could not only initiate unnecessary civil litigation but also forego the right to recover attorney's fees. Criminal defense lawyers unfamiliar with victims' rights could find the plea bargains that they negotiated on behalf of their clients overturned, with clients ordered to pay substantial victim restitution awards not contemplated in the original plea agreements.
DUI/DWI
Assume you represent a female crime victim (e.g., DUI) and she is on a 40% contingency. If she were to recover a total of $1 million comprised half each of economic (therapy, lost support) and non-economic (emotional distress) damages, your firm will receive about $400,000 as their contingent fee. If she knows of her restitution right, she can go to criminal court and get an order that the convicted defendant pay her $200,000 of that contingency fee (that portion based on economic losses). That means your client's net recovery of $600,000 ($1 million less the $400,000 contingency fee) will increase by 33% to $800,000. If this is not done, the other $200,000 will remain in the defendant's pocket.
Wrongful Death
It is important to understand who can be the crime victim. A trial lawyer representing the wife in a wrongful death case might assume that the husband who was run over and killed was the only victim. This is wrong. For the purposes of victims' rights and restitution, "victim" includes not only the harmed person, but family members as well. Penal Code Â§ 1202.4(k)(3)(A). The brothers, sisters, wives and children of the person actually harmed are also victims entitled to the full panoply of victims' rights. So the lawyer representing the wife in this example is representing a crime victim entitled to all the rights that come with that status. Corporations can also be victims.
Traffic Violations
The Internal Revenue Code allows the deduction of business expenses, but it disallows the deduction of criminal fines and penalties, even those related to oneâ€™s business. A trucking company cannot deduct parking fines and speeding citations, even if incurred during the operation of its trucks for business purposes. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) codified a surprising tax deduction for some white-collar criminal defendants â€“ and a new obligation for prosecutors. Proposed Treasury regulations, issued in 2020, clarify and implement the TCJA.
Sex Crimes
Penal Code Section 679.026(c) requires law enforcement agencies to notify victims of their rights under Marsy's Law. Subsections (c)(1) and (3) specify that victims are to be advised of their rights in Article 1, section 28(b). Penal Code Section 679.026(c) does not specify that victims must be notified of their rights under in Article 1, Section 28(c) of the constitution - the section which establishes the constitutional right to counsel. To recap, the state constitution establishes the right of victims to counsel (for which the victim must pay or find pro bono assistance) and the Penal Code establishes that victims have a right to be notified of this right. Would anybody imagine that most law enforcement agencies would take the position that they do not have to notify victims of the right to counsel? That is what is happening on the streets and in the courtrooms across the state - the rapist is advised of his right to counsel, but the rape victim is not. In other words, when it comes to the right to counsel, police and prosecutors give better advice to defendants than they do to victims.
White Collar Crimes
Theft
Misdemeanors
If the civil defendant is convicted of a crime - be it an infraction, misdemeanor or felony - and that crime caused the injuries that were a subject of the civil suit, victim restitution comes into play. As a victim, the plaintiff is entitled to restitution. While it is true the victim/plaintiff cannot recover twice for the same injury, restitution can still make a huge difference in the take home for the plaintiff. The reason: a victim may recover restitution for the attorneys' fees incurred in his or her civil case against the defendant.
Embezzlement
The crime victim seeking restitution can use tools surprisingly similar to an attachment or a temporary restraining order in a civil action to prevent sequestration of assets. If the criminal complaint alleges that the defendant committed two or more felonies involving fraud or embezzlement with a pattern of related felony conduct involving the taking of more than $100,000, the prosecution may seek an aggravated white collar enhancement by making a motion for a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction, and even appointment of a receiver to preserveassets. The temporary restraining order may be sought ex parte. If the assets are real property, a lis pendens may be recorded. If there is a bank account, the financial institution may be compelled to close the account numbers of the defendant so that the accounts may be included in the temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction. Upon the defendant's conviction of two felonies with an aggravated white collar enhancement, a levy for the payment of restitution will be placed on the property covered by court order.
Drug Crimes
Proposition 9, the Victims' Bill of Rights Act of 2008, also called Marsy's Law, passed with almost 54 percent of the vote. It is an interesting proposition, starting with its supporters. Henry Nicholas, one of the cofounders of Broadcom, contributed almost $5 million toward its passage. His sister, Marsy, was murdered, hence the name of the bill. Nicholas is now facing a federal indictment for a number of felonies, including drug charges. This is ironic because major provisions of Proposition 9 dramatically reduce the ability of prisoners to obtain parole.
Assault
Murder
This Report serves three functions; first, to summarize the victim's rights from the perspective of professionals working in different phases of the criminal justice system, second, to review the very moving stories of the family members of murder victims who spoke about how they were treated by the system, and third, to recommend changes needed to protect victims ' rights.
Probation Violation
A victim may apply to a state-funded program to receive restitution, which is subject to a limit. The judge will order restitution at the trial's conclusion, which may include property loss and lost wages. After an offender is released, a notice of paid restitution is sent to the court to determine the outstanding balance. A restitution order can be converted to a civil judgment without filing a civil lawsuit. If the defendant is employed, a victim may request an income deduction order which acts as a garnishment. An offender's failure to pay restitution may constitute a probation violation. An offender's inability to pay can affect whether there is a violation of probation, but it cannot affect the amount of restitution that is ordered. Finally, a restitution order does not expire and bankruptcy will not eliminate it.
Homicide
Victor Vega, a victim's advocate for the Los Angeles City Attorney's office, explained in detail how he helps families of homicide victims. He helps them file for compensation and restitution, pay out-of-pocket expenses, and pay for relocation (up to $2,000). Mr. Vega assists victims with their impact statements. He also helps provide security to victims who need protection and do not wish to relocate. Perhaps most importantly, Mr. Vega helps prepare victims for the realities of the criminal justice systemâ€”not the fictions observed on television. Everything he learns is confidential unless it is material to the outcome of the case.
Restraining Order
Criminal restitution may also serve a victim better than civil injunctive relief because of one basic fact: a criminal sentence. If the defendant is incarcerated, a temporary restraining order against the defendant's conduct usually is unnecessary the defendant is prevented from continuing the objectionable activity. If the defendant remains incarcerated for a number of years, a preliminary injunction would also not be necessary. The mere fact of beingwith a crime often puts an end to a criminal simply by the exposure of the criminal conduct. In addition, law enforcement authorities likely will have many of the instruments of the criminal enterprise and thus effectively shut it down.

Unfair Competition
A main statutory basis of the civil complaint filed by the California Attorney General against Hewlett Packard was Business and Profession Code Â§17200. This very broad statute prohibits unfair competition. Unfair competition is anything that is unlawful, unfair or a fraudulent business act. As interpreted by the courts, Â§17200 brings into its scope the violation of any other law. If one violates another statute as part of one's business then it becomes an unfair business practice. The approach of the California Attorney General was that Hewlett Packard hired investigators who conducted their business illegally and that Hewlett Packard must (literally) pay for this. That approach could also be used to bring the unauthorized investigative services to bear on the web host which outsourced the work. The reach of this approach is not just civil because Business and Profession Code Â§17100 makes violation of the unfair competition law a crime.

Employment Contract
The only time a bonus is clearly not an inducement to take a job or stay at one is when there is a fixed employment contract which already has been signed independently of the bonus â€”a rarity.

Personal Injury
Some tort cases involve a defendant who is also charged with a crime. The defendant in some of these cases has assets. Many personal injury attorneys are not aware that a civil settlement with a wealthy defendant who has been convicted may substantially under compensate their clients - without regard to the reasonableness of the settlement. In other words, the client may be able to greatly increase his or her net receipts.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Trial lawyers know it is one thing to have a right to information and quite another to obtain the information. In civil cases it often seems there is a great deal of judicial patience with defendants who fail to answer discovery about their assets. Even after a judgment there may be rounds of enforcement proceedings and motions to compel in an attempt to extract full information. Not surprisingly, the delay of civil litigation often allows creative defendants to do "estate planning" over a course of years. This "estate planning" almost always involves hiding assets in off shore shell corporations.

Bankruptcy
Tax Law
The TCJA is the rare tax law which empowers a defendant to expose a prosecutor to penalties and aligns the interests of crime victims and defendants in several ways.
