According to court documents filed Wednesday in 5th District Court, the judge ordered that Hildebrandt be allowed to sell her home in Ivins, which was listed at $5.1 million.
As part of the order, Hildebrandt must place $100,000 in escrow in an account managed by an attorney, where the money will remain until the matter of restitution is closed.
“The funds must be used first to satisfy any restitution ordered to benefit the minors,” the order states. “Any remaining funds shall be returned to Ms. Hildebrandt.”
