What is the standard of review in a petition?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from In re Genaro G., G037350 (Cal. App. 6/28/2007), G037350 (Cal. App. 2007):

We review the evidence in the light most favorable to the judgment, drawing all reasonable inferences and "presum[ing] . . . the existence of every fact the trier could reasonably deduce from the evidence." (People v. Ochoa (1993) 6 Cal.4th 1199, 1206.) Under this familiar standard, we find the evidence supports the juvenile court's finding that the allegations of the petition were true.
