California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Marriage of Fink, In re, 155 Cal.Rptr. 47, 92 Cal.App.3d 270 (Cal. App. 1979):

1 Because the trial court did not grant a new trial for insufficiency of the evidence, it was not empowered to reweigh the evidence to support its conclusion. (Code Civ.Proc., 657; Wade v. De Bernardi (1970) 4 Cal.App.3d 967, 975, 84 Cal.Rptr. 817.)
