LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 576, as amended, Torres. Vandalism: graffiti: recovery of
costs.
Existing law provides that in every case in which a victim, as

the juvenile offender's conduct, the court is required to impose an
order upon the defendant or the juvenile offender to make restitution
to the victim or victims, as specified.
This bill would add to those definitions of victim any
governmental entity that is responsible for repairing, replacing, or
restoring public or privately owned property that has been defaced
with graffiti or other inscribed material, as specified, and
that has sustained an economic loss as the result of specified
violations.
