California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from The People v. Jefferson, F058371, No. VCF214790A (Cal. App. 2010):
validity of [his] conviction[] appraised on consideration of the case as it was tried and as the issues were determined in the trial court." (Cole v. Arkansas (1948) 333 U.S. 196, 202 (Cole).) Because there was no evidence that anyone sold stolen property or that defendant aided in such a sale, defendant contends there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction on count 2.
