In assessing the sufficiency of the evidence, how does the court assess the evidence?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Phillips, B268468 (Cal. App. 2016):
In assessing the sufficiency of the evidence we review the record to determine whether "there is substantial evidence of solid value, contradicted or uncontradicted, which will support the trial court's decision." (People v. Kurey (2001) 88 Cal.App.4th 840, 848.) In doing so, great deference is given to the trial court, as we resolve conflicting evidence in favor of the decision. (Id. at pp. 848-849.)
