What is the appellant's burden to identify and establish deficiencies in the evidence?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Sanders v. Cnty. of L. A., B267619 (Cal. App. 2018):

["appellant challenging a factual finding . . . must summarize the evidence supporting the judgment and explain why such evidence is insufficient"]; City of Hollister v. Monterey Ins. Co. (2008) 165 Cal.App.4th 455, 484 ["[i]t is the appellant's burden, not the court's, to identify and establish deficiencies in the evidence"].) Because Sanders does not provide a proper argument about the sufficiency of the evidence, she has forfeited that issue on appeal.
