What is the test for sufficiency of the evidence in an assault case?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Metz, B255293 (Cal. App. 2015):
Appellant claims no fingerprints were obtained, no stolen items were recovered from him, the video did not show any alleged stolen items, and the victim could not identify as his property any items in the suspect's hands. We reject the claim. This claim in essence is a sufficiency of the evidence claim. The evidence presented at trial was sufficient to support the verdicts. (Cf. People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 126 (Kelly).)
