Plaintiff-Appellee,
v
No. 199315
Leelanau Circuit Court
LC No. 96-000867 FH
WILLIAM MITCHELL KIMERLY,
Defendant-Appellant.
Before: Michael J. Kelly, P.J., and Fitzgerald and M.G. Harrison*, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Defendant was convicted on his plea of guilty of felony nonsupport, MCL 750.161; MSA
28.358. He was initially placed on probation and, among the conditions thereof, ordered to pay
restitution of $5,727.07, plus costs, a fine, a payment to the Crime Victim’s Rights Fund, and to
reimburse the county for his attorney fees. On this appeal of right, he contends that the trial court erred
in failing to reduce the amount of restitution by the $200 which, during the plea taking, he claimed he
had on a single occasion paid directly to one child for her support. This appeal is being decided without
oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). We affirm.
It appears that subsequent to the commencement of defendant’s probation, he was charged
with violating probation by, inter alia, failing to report, failing to submit to testing for alcohol
consumption, failing to maintain employment, failing to pay restitution, and a number of other technical
and substantive infractions. As defendant seemed to be making no effort to pay restitution, the issue
now presented would appear in any event to be moot, but assuming that it is not, it is without merit. The
presentence report reflected a support arrearage of $5,736.30. At sentencing, defendant and his
counsel acknowledged the accuracy of the report in this respect, objecting to other aspects of the
report. Accordingly, the issue presented is not cognizable on appeal, having been waived when
defendant, in effect, conceded the accuracy of a higher restitution figure. People v Grant, 455 Mich
221; 565 NW2d 389 (1997).
