The following excerpt is from People v. Smith, D072681 (Cal. App. 2018):
For purposes of this section, we state the evidence in the light most favorable to the judgment. (See People v. Osband (1996) 13 Cal.4th 622, 690; People v. Dawkins (2014) 230 Cal.App.4th 991, 994.) Because Smith does not challenge the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction or otherwise challenge the jury's verdict on the evidence presented, we focus our discussion on the evidentiary issue presented on appeal.
