California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from In re Marriage of Parvizian, B194981 (Cal. App. 2/28/2008), B194981 (Cal. App. 2008):

We summarily reject Syrus's contention that his evidence of Malak's wrongdoing must be accepted because it was not controverted by substantial evidence. The trial court's credibility calls are binding on this appeal. (Nestle v. City of Santa Monica (1972) 6 Cal.3d 920, 925-926.)
