IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA No. 2-494 / 11-0969 Filed August 8, 2012 STATE OF IOWA, Plaintiff-Appellee, vs. JAMES ALAN CHRISTENSEN, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Woodbury County, Arthur E. Gamble, Judge. James Christensen appeals the district court s ruling ordering him to make restitution to the Crime Victim Assistance Program. AFFIRMED. Susan R. Stockdale, Des Moines, for appellant. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Martha E. Trout, Assistant Attorney General, Patrick Jennings, Woodbury County Attorney, Tim Kenyon, Union County Attorney, and Andrew Prosser, Woodbury Assistant County Attorney, for appellee. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Doyle and Danilson, JJ. 2 DOYLE, J. James Christensen appeals the district court s June 10, 2011 ruling ordering him to make restitution to the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP). He contends the court erred in finding the seventy-two hour reporting requirement to be eligible for CVAP compensation was properly waived. See Iowa Code ยง 915.84(2) (2007). Additionally, he argues the court erred in finding the CVAP s award of lost wages to the victim beyond two weeks was improper. After a thorough review and consideration of the record, we affirm the district court s ruling without opinion. See Iowa R. App. P. 6.1203(a), (d). AFFIRMED.
