The following excerpt is from People v. Allen, C074260 (Cal. App. 2019):
The limited scope of appellate review is well known. We must indulge every inference in favor of the prosecution. We scour the entire record for substantial evidence, that is evidence that is reasonable, credible, and of solid value. As long as there is substantial evidence to support a jury's finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, we must affirm the judgment. (People v. Leon (2010) 181 Cal.App.4th 452, 463 (Leon).)
