Is a recitation of only the appellant's evidence not the "demonstration" contemplated under the above rule?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Sharp v. Kay, B212346, No. BC357320 (Cal. App. 2010):

"'A recitation of only [the appellant's] evidence is not the "demonstration" contemplated under the above rule. [Citation.] Accordingly, if, as [Kay] here contend[s], "some particular issue of fact is not sustained [he is] required to set forth in [his] brief all of the material evidence on the point and not merely [his] own evidence. Unless this is done the error is deemed to be waived."'" (People v. Dougherty, supra, 138 Cal.App.3d at p. 282; accord, Grassilli v. Barr, supra, 142 Cal.App.4th at p. 1279.)
