In determining the sufficiency of the evidence, what is the test for determining that the evidence is insufficient?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Packard v. Macias, 2d Civ. No. B270079 (Cal. App. 2017):
In deciding the sufficiency of the evidence, "we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the judgment, drawing every reasonable inference and resolving every conflict to support the judgment." (Toste v. CalPortland Construction (2016) 245 Cal.App.4th 362, 366.) We do not weigh the evidence or decide the credibility of the witnesses. (Howard v. Owens Corning (1999) 72 Cal.App.4th 621, 630, 633.)
