Circuit in United States v. Siegel, 753 F.3d 705 (7th Cir. 2014), United States v. Thompson, 777 F.3d 368

(7th Cir. 2015), United States v. Kappes, 782 F.3d 828 (7th Cir. 2015), United States v. Downs, 784 F.3d

1180 (7th Cir. 2015), United States v. Poulin, 809 F.3d 924 (7th Cir. 2016), United States v. Ortiz, 817

F.3d 1180 (7th Cir. 2016), United States v. Hill, 818 F.3d 342 (7th Cir. 2016), and their progeny, the

Court withheld imposition of any additional conditions of supervised release. The Court concluded

that such additional conditions, if any, are best left for further consideration at such time as the

defendant may become eligible for release from the custodial portion of the Court’s sentence.

AO 245B (Rev.06/05) Sheet 5 – Criminal Monetary Penalties Judgment Page 6 of 8
Defendant: Larry Hamilton
Case Number: 23-CR-77-11

CRIMINAL MONETARY PENALTIES

The defendant shall pay the following total criminal monetary penalties in accordance with the
schedule of payments set forth on Sheet 6.

Special Assessment Fine Restitution

Totals: $100.00 Waived $274,328.00

FINE

Based upon the defendant’s limited financial resources, the Court determines that the defendant
does not have the financial ability to pay a fine within the guidelines range. The Court determines that
the defendant does not have the financial ability to pay the interest on the fine, costs of incarceration,
costs of community confinement, and supervision, and therefore waives the interest on the fine, costs
of incarceration, costs of community confinement, and supervision in this case.

A waiver of the cost of community confinement does not preclude the Bureau of Prisons from
imposing a subsistence fee of up to twenty-five percent (25%) of gross income, based on ability to pay,
for any portion of the sentence spent in a community correctional facility.

RESTITUTION

The defendant shall pay restitution in the amount listed below. Interest on the restitution is
waived. Restitution payments shall be made to the Clerk of the Court—362 U.S. Courthouse, 517 E.
Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202—who shall disburse restitution payments to the
following payees:

Case Number: 23-CR-77-11

SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS

Payments shall be applied in the following order: (1) assessment, and (2) restitution.

Special instructions regarding the payment of criminal monetary penalties:

The Court considers the defendant’s participation in the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate
Financial Responsibility Program to be a necessary component of the repayment of the court-imposed
financial obligations. Payments are to apply first to the special assessment and then to the restitution
ordered by the Court until paid in full.

Unless the Court has expressly ordered otherwise in the special instructions above, if this
judgment imposes a period of imprisonment, payment of the criminal monetary penalties shall be due
during the period of imprisonment. All criminal monetary penalty payments, except those payments
made through the Bureau of Prisons Inmate Financial Responsibility Program are to be made as
directed by the Court, the defendant’s supervising probation officer, or the United States Attorney.
