California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Arciniega, B263746 (Cal. App. 2016):
"'"To determine the sufficiency of the evidence to support a conviction, an appellate court reviews the entire record in the light most favorable to the prosecution to determine whether it contains evidence that is reasonable, credible, and of solid value, from which a rational trier of fact could find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt."' [Citations.]" (People v. Valdez (2004) 32 Cal.4th 73, 104.)
