What is the test for overturning a finding of insufficient sufficiency to support a conviction?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Stone, C054455 (Cal. App. 7/31/2008), C054455 (Cal. App. 2008):

"`"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.] `"`If the circumstances reasonably justify the trier of fact's findings, the opinion of the reviewing court that the circumstances might also be reasonably reconciled with a contrary finding does not warrant a reversal of the judgment.'"' [Citations.]" (People v. Valdez (2004) 32 Cal.4th 73, 104.)
