        "text": "Bird, Judge.\nOn May 19, 2001, Willie Milton Jr. was driving an automobile that left the interstate highway and overturned. He fled the scene on foot, but a passenger who was ejected from the automobile died as a result of the injuries he sustained. The Pulaski County Circuit Court subsequently accepted Milton\u2019s guilty plea to the charge of failing to stop after an accident involving death or personal injury. He was sentenced to serve 120 days in the county jail, to pay fees and court costs, and to pay the victim\u2019s family $25,000 restitution. Milton now appeals the portion of the sentence regarding restitution. We affirm.\nAt the sentencing hearing the victim\u2019s mother testified that his family loved him, that after the accident she took sleeping pills and was tardy to work, and that her oldest son was unable to focus. She testified about her grief as well as that of her sister, who previously had lost a child and \u201chad to go through this again.\u201d\nAt the conclusion of the hearing the court pronounced sentence from the bench, including its order that Milton pay $25,000 restitution to the victim\u2019s family. The court stated: \u201cWe will monitor the restitution payments. . . . $25,000 over six years\u2019 probation will be $350 per month. This will be paid for restitution. Well, it will be paid on a monthly basis... . . Anything else?\u201d The State responded that it had nothing further. Milton\u2019s attorney informed the court, \u201cI am relatively certain that I will appeal this,\u201d but made no further objection or argument regarding the sentence. A judgment and disposition order reflects the order that was pronounced in open court.\nMilton argues for the first time on appeal that the trial court was not justified in ordering him to pay restitution because there is no evidence in the record of actual economic loss by any victim, as is statutorily required. It is true that Ark. Code Ann. \u00a7 5-4-205 (a) (2) (A) (Repl. 1997) requires that in ordering restitution, the sentencing authority \u201cshall make a determination of actual economic loss caused to a victim by the crime.\u201d Parties are bound on appeal by the scope and nature of the objections and arguments presented at trial, however, and we will not address arguments that have not been raised at trial. Nix v. State, 54 Ark. App. 302, 304, 925 S.W.2d 802, 803 (1996). Because Milton did not argue to the trial court that there was no evidence of actual economic loss, we will not address the issue on appeal.\nAffirmed.\nGladwin and Griffen, JJ., agree.",
