Is insufficient evidence sufficient to invalidate a claim?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from S.J. v. Steven J. (In re Marriage of S.J.), F075636 (Cal. App. 2019):

evidence is insufficient as a matter of law. [Citations.] An appellant who fails to cite and discuss the evidence supporting the judgment cannot demonstrate that such evidence is insufficient. The fact that there was substantial evidence in the record to support a contrary finding does not compel the conclusion that there was no substantial evidence to support the judgment." (Rayii v. Gatica (2013) 218 Cal.App.4th 1402, 1408.)
