On appeal, our review of the sufficiency of the evidence is the same regardless of the People's burden of proof below. (See People v. Ruiloba (2005) 131 Cal.App.4th 674, 682.) We uphold the trial court's factual determinations if supported by substantial evidence. (See People v. Carpenter (1999) 21 Cal.4th 1016, 1040.)
