The following excerpt is from Wright v. Wright (In re Wright), A144271 (Cal. App. 2017):

It is a fundamental principle of appellate review that a judgment or order challenged on appeal is presumed to be correct. (Denham v. Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564 (Denham).) "All intendments and presumptions are indulged to support it on matters as to which the record is silent," and it is the appellant's burden to affirmatively demonstrate error. (Ibid.)
