The following excerpt is from People v. Ireland, 10 Cal. Daily Op. Serv. 11, 797, 114 Cal.Rptr.3d 915, 188 Cal.App.4th 328 (Cal. App. 2010):
In determining whether the evidence is sufficient to support the verdict, we review the entire record, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the judgment and presuming in support of the verdict the existence of every fact the jury could reasonably deduce from the evidence. The issue is whether the record so viewed discloses evidence that is reasonable, credible and of solid value such that a rational trier of fact could find the elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. ( People v. Carter (2005) 36 Cal.4th 1114, 1156, 32 Cal.Rptr.3d 759, 117 P.3d 476.)
