The following excerpt is from People v. Flores, F077192 (Cal. App. 2020):
When considering a challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence to support a judgment, we review the record in the light most favorable to the judgment and decide whether it contains substantial evidence from which the finder of fact could make the necessary finding beyond a reasonable doubt. We presume every inference in support of the judgment that the finder of fact could reasonably have made. We do not reweigh the evidence or reevaluate witness credibility. We cannot reverse the judgment merely because the evidence may be reconciled with a contrary finding. (People v. D'Arcy (2010) 48 Cal.4th 257, 293.)
