What is the standard of review on appeal when a defendant challenges the sufficiency of evidence to support his burglary conviction?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Yazdanbakhesh, B275407 (Cal. App. 2017):

(6) Appellant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his burglary conviction. "Where, as here, a defendant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction, '[t]he standard of review is well settled: On appeal, we review the whole record in the light most favorable to the judgment below to determine whether it discloses substantial evidence--that is, evidence that is reasonable, credible and of solid value--from which a reasonable trier of fact could find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. [Citations.]'" (People v. Zaun (2016) 245 Cal.App.4th 1171, 1173.)
