What is the effect of the Court of Appeal's consideration of an order made on an affidavit in support of an Order?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Bessesen v. Dorshkind, 156 Cal.App.2d 220, 319 P.2d 369 (Cal. App. 1957):

"An appellate court will not disturb the implied findings of fact made by a trial court in support of an order, any more than it will interfere with express findings upon which a final judgment is predicated. When the evidence is conflicting, it will be presumed that the court found every fact necessary to support its order that the evidence would justify. So far as it has passed on the weight of evidence or the credibility of witnesses, its implied findings are conclusive. This rule is equally applicable whether the evidence is oral or documentary. In the consideration of an order made on affidavits involving the decision of a question of fact, the appellate court is bound by the same rule as where oral testimony is presented for review.' (Citing authorities and cases.) When an issue is tried on affidavits, the rule on appeal is that those affidavits favoring the contention of the prevailing party establish not only the facts stated therein but also all facts which reasonably may be inferred therefrom, and where there is a substantial conflict in the facts stated, a determination of the controverted facts by the trial court will not be disturbed. Hayutin v. Rudnick, 115 Cal.App.2d 138, 140, 251 P.2d 707. * * *'
