Carrie Tolstedt was sentenced Friday to three years of probation and six months of home confinement. She must also pay a $100,000 fine. Her sentencing was handed down by U.S. District Judge Josephine Staton for the Central District of California.
Tolstedt pleaded guilty in March to obstructing an examination by the Treasury Department’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) into the bank’s sales practices misconduct. The OCC separately fined her $17 million for her actions and banned her from the banking industry.
