The property is not “returned” until it is sold and the victim receives money from the sale. Here, that means that a sentencing court should reduce the amount of restitution by the amount of money the bank received when it sold the houses that were collateral for the fraudulent loans, rather than by the value of the houses when the bank foreclosed on them. |SCOTUS=2010-2016 |Majority=Breyer | JoinMajority = unanimous |Concurrence=Sotomayor |JoinConcurrence=Ginsburg |Dissent= |JoinDissent= |LawsApplied=Mandatory Victim's Restitution Act (18 U.S.C. §§3663A–366) }}Robers v. United States, 572 U.S. ___ (2014), is a US criminal law case. The United States Supreme Court held in a unanimous decision that restitution in cases involving mortgage fraud is determined by the actual money lent not the value of the property.[1] Benjamin Robers had been convicted of mortgage fraud. The District Court had ordered Robers to pay the difference between the amount lent to him and the amount the banks received in selling the houses that had served as collateral for the loans. Robers claimed that the District Court should have instead reduced the restitution amount by the value of the houses on the date the banks took title to them since that was when "part of the property" was "returned." The Supreme Court affirmed the Appellate and District courts.[2] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/12-9012 | title = Robers v.
