                      MEMORANDUM DECISION

Judge James B. Morse Jr. delivered the decision of the Court, in which
Presiding Judge James P. Beene and Judge Michael J. Brown joined.


M O R S E, Judge:

¶1             Tony Shumenko Gamble ["Gamble"] appeals his conviction
and sentence for armed robbery, arguing that the restitution order is illegal
because the State did not meet its burden in proving that F.H., the recipient
of the restitution award, is a victim that suffered economic loss. We review
under a fundamental error standard, and because the superior court did not
err, we affirm Gamble's conviction and sentence.

                FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

¶2             Gamble was convicted of armed robbery for his participation
in stealing a pendant and chain from a jewelry store. The testimony elicited
at trial showed that Gamble planned the robbery and served as a lookout
while others carried out the robbery. The stolen goods were valued around
$13,500. After the robbery, store employees called F.H., who was at a
different location of the store at the time. The police who arrived on scene
asked F.H. for surveillance footage, and F.H. provided it for them.

¶3            At trial, F.H. gave testimony that would be consistent with
him being either an owner or a manager of the store. He never identified
himself as the store owner. However, the detective assigned as case agent
referred to F.H. as the store "owner" in her testimony.

¶4            The court ordered, and the probation department prepared, a
presentence report pursuant to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 26.4.
The presentence report included a victim statement in which F.H. was
identified as the store owner. The report stated, "[F.H.], owner of [the
jewelry store], is requesting restitution in the amount of $12,995.00 for the
stolen jewelry." F.H. was also identified as the owner of the jewelry store
in two other sections of the presentence report.

¶5           The court ordered Gamble to pay $12,995, jointly and
severally with the other defendants, to F.H., whom the court identified as
the "victim" of the crime. Gamble only made a general objection to

                            Decision of the Court

restitution, while at the same time admitting that "we . . . understand that
the Court may order it . . . ."

¶6            Gamble appealed, and we have jurisdiction pursuant to
Article 6, Section 9, of the Arizona Constitution and Arizona Revised
Statutes ("A.R.S.") sections 12-120.21(A)(1), 13-4031, and -4033(A)(1).

                                DISCUSSION

¶7             On appeal, Gamble argues that there was insufficient
evidence to support a restitution order in favor of F.H. because the evidence
presented did not establish that F.H. was the owner of the jewelry store.
Although Gamble objected generally to restitution, he did not object to the
error he argues on appeal, and we therefore review for fundamental error.
See State v. Henderson, 210 Ariz. 561, 567, ¶ 19 (2005) ("Fundamental error
review . . . applies when a defendant fails to object to alleged trial error.").

¶8              Under Arizona statute, "If a person is convicted of an offense,
the court shall require the convicted person to make restitution to the
person who is the victim of the crime . . . in the full amount of the economic
loss . . . ." A.R.S. § 13-603(C). The person entitled to restitution is the one
that suffered an economic loss. See State v. Holguin, 177 Ariz. 589, 591 (App.
1993) ("The trial court is required to impose restitution to reimburse the
victim for the full amount of his economic loss."); State v. Lopez, 174 Ariz.
131, 140 (1992) ("A trial court may order restitution be paid to others who
have indemnified victims for losses caused by criminal acts.").

¶9               When imposing a sentence, the superior court is "entitled to
rely on uncontested facts within the presentence report." State v. Molina,
211 Ariz. 130, 138, ¶ 29 (App. 2005); see also State v. Gonzales, 233 Ariz. 455,
458, ¶ 11 (App. 2013) ("A defendant who fails to object to the contents of a
presentence report has waived objections as to the accuracy and
completeness of the report."). "Although [a restitution] award may not be
'based on mere speculation,' a trial court may rely on information contained
in a presentence report and victim impact statement." State v. Lizardi, 234
Ariz. 501, 507, ¶ 22 (App. 2014) (citation omitted). "Whether information in
the pre-sentence report is reliable is largely within the discretion of the trial
court . . . ." State v. Moreno, 153 Ariz. 67, 70 (1986).

¶10           The presentence report repeatedly identified F.H. as the
owner of the store. Moreover, at trial, the detective assigned to the case also
identified F.H. as the owner of the store. At no time did Gamble object to
or contest these statements. Because the unobjected to information in the
presentence report provides evidence to support the superior court's


                                       3

restitution order, we cannot conclude that the superior court abused its
discretion.

                              CONCLUSION

¶11          The superior court did not err in awarding restitution to F.H.,
and we therefore affirm Gamble's conviction and sentence.
