California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Johnson, E052391, Super.Ct.No. FBA700262 (Cal. App. 2012):

In reviewing a section 654 challenge, an appellate court applies a substantial evidence standard of review. "'The determination of whether there was more than one objective is a factual determination, which will not be reversed on appeal unless unsupported by the evidence presented at trial.' [Citations.] '[T]he law gives the trial court broad latitude in making this determination.' [Citation.]" (People v. Wynn (2010) 184 Cal.App.4th 1210, 1214-1215.)
