| Sentencing Guidelines Worksheet Changes, 2005 |
|
| Below are the changes to the worksheet made in 2005:
- The field "Indigence Established," a Yes/No question, was moved from
the Victim Information section (in the lower left hand corner) to the top of the
worksheet with other offender information such as race and type of
representation.
- In the Actual Sentence section, one new field was added. In response to
House Bill 918 (2004), a field for the amount of "Economic Loss" was
added. The individual
completing the worksheet shall record in the designated space the dollar amount
of the economic loss or mark "unknown amount" for all offenses involving
theft and related crimes under Criminal Law Article, Title 7, or fraud
and related crimes under Criminal Law Article, Title 8, Annotated Code of
Maryland. The amount of economic loss equals the amount of restitution ordered
by a circuit court judge or, if not ordered, the full amount of restitution that
could have been ordered.
