The following excerpt is from People v. Mendoza-Montoya, D068383 (Cal. App. 2016):
2. Where, as here, the sufficiency of the evidence is challenged on appeal, we review the record and recite the facts in a light most favorable to the judgment. (People v. Hill (1998) 17 Cal.4th 800, 848-849.)
3. Because the brothers share the same last name, we refer to them by their first names for convenience and clarity; we intend no disrespect by this informality. (People v. Tran (2013) 215 Cal.App.4th 1207, 1211, fn. 2.)
