Does an appellant have an obligation to search the record to find evidence supporting their claim?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Dalton, C069572 (Cal. App. 2015):
The appellate court has no obligation to search the record to find evidence that supports an appellant's contentions. (People v. Sanghera (2006) 139 Cal.App.4th 1567, 1574.) Therefore, an appellant's failure to adequately cite to the record forfeits consideration of the issue raised.
