What is the test for a finding of intent to promote, further or assist in any criminal conduct by members of a criminal gang?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Anyadike, B226853 (Cal. App. 2012):

Because substantial evidence supports a finding that the crimes benefitted the gang, reversal cannot be justified by the possibility that the evidence might have been reconciled with a

finding that appellants acted only for personal reasons. (See People v. Albillar, supra, 51 Cal.4th at p. 60.)
