Colorado can’t keep fines and costs assessed against criminal defendants whose convictions have been reversed, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled today, in a decision that drew criticism from conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, who said the court’s reasoning could lead to unintended consequences.
The majority opinion in Nelson v. Colorado, by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is straightforward enough: Shannon Nelson and Alonzo Madden are entitled to refunds of court costs and restitution they paid following criminal convictions that were subsequently reversed. Nelson was convicted of abusing her children but acquitted by a second jury after her conviction was reversed because of trial error. Madden’s conviction on child prostitution and assault charges was reversed by the Colorado Supreme Court and the state declined to prosecute him again.

Top Value Stocks For 2021: PennantPark Investment Corporation(PNNT)
PennantPark Investment Corporation is a BDC whose objectives are to generate both current income and capital appreciation while seeking to preserve capital through debt and equity investments primarily made to U.S. middle-market companies in the form of senior secured debt, mezzanine debt and equity investments.
We believe middle-market companies offer attractive risk-reward to investors due to the limited amount of capital available for such companies. We seek to create a diversified portfolio that includes senior secured debt, mezzanine debt and equity investments by investing approximately $10 million to $50 million of capital, on average, in the securities of middle-market companies. We expect this investment size to vary proportionately with the size of our capital base. We use the term “middle-market” to refer to companies with annual revenues between $50 million and $1 billion. Advisors’ Opinion:
