Does the Court of Appeal have any power or authority to consider the credibility of the witnesses in the case?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from James Klein Ins. v. Select Office Solutions, G030988. (Cal. App. 2003):

Although Select couches its argument in terms of the lack of substantial evidence, in effect it asks us to reweigh the evidence and reconsider the credibility of the witnesses. We may not do so. "`"[A court of appeal has] no power to judge . . . the effect or value of the evidence, to weigh the evidence, to consider the credibility of the witnesses, or to resolve conflicts in the evidence or in the reasonable inferences that may be drawn therefrom.'" [Citation.]" (White v. Inbound Aviation (1999) 69 Cal.App.4th 910, 927.)
