The following excerpt is from People v. Deleon, B252431 (2nd Cir. 2014):

"'"The question whether . . . section 654 is factually applicable to a given series of offenses is for the trial court, and the law gives the trial court broad latitude in making this determination. Its findings on this question must be upheld on appeal if there is any substantial evidence to support them." [Citation.] . . . "'We must "view the evidence in a light most favorable to the respondent and presume in support of the [sentencing] order the existence of every fact the trier could reasonably deduce from the evidence. [Citation.]" [Citation.]' [Citation.]" [Citation.]' [Citation.]" (People v. Galvez (2011) 195 Cal.App.4th 1253, 1262-1263.)
