What is the test for a jury to determine credibility of a witness?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Kretzmar v. Triad Global Asset Mgmt., Inc., B245300 (Cal. App. 2014):

or jury to determine the credibility of a witness and the truth or falsity of the facts upon which a determination depends. [Citation.]"'" (People v. Mayberry (1975) 15 Cal.3d 143, 150.) The trial court found defendants' declaration to be credible and granted relief from default for the reasons set forth therein. On appeal, we do not reweigh the evidence. (People v. Culver (1973) 10 Cal.3d 542, 548.) The trial court's determination of credibility will not be disturbed on appeal, and we will not address Kretzmar's accusations of deceitfulness or conflicting evidence further.
