Can a judge overturn a finding that the evidence supports a judgment the trier of fact could have reasonably deduced from the evidence?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Williams, B267191 (Cal. App. 2017):

judgment the trier of fact could have reasonably deduced from the evidence. [Citation.] If the circumstances reasonably justify the trier of fact's findings, reversal of the judgment is not warranted simply because the circumstances might also reasonably be reconciled with a contrary finding. [Citation.] 'A reviewing court neither reweighs evidence nor reevaluates a witness's credibility.' [Citation.]" (People v. Albillar (2010) 51 Cal.4th 47, 59-60.)
