The following excerpt is from Menges v. Dep't of Transp., 273 Cal.Rptr.3d 231, 59 Cal.App.5th 13 (Cal. App. 2020):
Menges asserts the award of costs was unreasonable because it was for unnecessary medical records review. Her assertions, however, are unsupported by factual or legal citations. As a result, she fails to carry her burden to demonstrate abuse of discretion. " To demonstrate error, appellant must present meaningful legal analysis supported by citations to authority and citations to facts in the record that support the claim of error. [Citations.] [Citation.] Mere suggestions of error without supporting argument or authority other than general abstract principles do not properly present grounds for appellate review. [Citation.] Hence, conclusory claims of error will fail. [Citation.]" ( Multani v. Witkin & Neal (2013) 215 Cal.App.4th 1428, 1457, 155 Cal.Rptr.3d 892.)
