UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 8 DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 United States of America, Plaintiff, v. Gary Cooper, Defendant. The government believes that the imposition of restitution is appropriate in this case. Defendant appears to be arguing that because he only receives a small hourly wage, he should not be required to spend that entire hourly wage on his restitution payments. The government suggests that the restitution that defendant will pay in prison might very well be the only restitution that the victims will see in this case. Pursuant to Title 18 U.S.C. Section 3572(d)(2), the court shall order that restitution payments be made in the "shortest time in which full payment can reasonably be made." The restitution order in this case appears to meet that stated goal and thus, the order should not be changed. Respectfully submitted this 9 th day of March, 2006 DANIEL G.
