The following excerpt is from People v. Miller, C076487 (Cal. App. 2017):
no consequence. (People v. Earp (1999) 20 Cal.4th 826, 887-888 ["Where, as here, the jury's findings rest to some degree upon circumstantial evidence, we must decide whether the circumstances reasonably justify those findings, 'but our opinion that the circumstances also might reasonably be reconciled with a contrary finding' does not render the evidence insubstantial. [Citation.]"].)
