These are questions he needs to ask his attorney. Obviously with a charge that serious, you certainly made sure he had one originally, and he certainly would be using the lawyer now. This is NOT something to attempt without counsel.

Your husband will probably pay all of the restitution himself. But you don't need to guess, pull his sentencing order. The restitution he will be paying will be on the order. Monthly payments will be determined by his probation officer. I don' tunderstand the last question: will he be allowed to have a living? What does that mean?
