State v. Sargent
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM OF DECISION.
The defendant, Richard Sargent, appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (Penobscot County; Beaulieu, J.), declaring a forfeiture of his $7500 cash bail. We find no clear error in the court’s finding that Sargent breached a condition of his bond by failing to appear for execution of his sentence after his conviction for armed robbery was affirmed.1 15 M.R.S.A. § 1094 (Supp.1988); M.R.Crim.P. 46D(a)(l). Furthermore, we find no abuse of discretion in the court’s failure to set aside the forfeiture and remit some or all of the amount forfeited. State v. Ellis, 272…
