What it's about
The Supreme Court refused to hear his case (denied review), so it did not decide that question.
The dispute concerns restitution under 18 U.S.C. § 2259 and whether a judge or jury must find the facts supporting it.
Question presented
Whether the Sixth Amendment requires that the facts necessary to support an order of restitution under 18 U.S.C. § 2259 be found by a jury, or admitted by the defendant, rather than found by a judge under a preponderance-of-the-evidence standard.
