MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Cardona-Urbina, 26 F.3d 133 (9th Cir. 1994):
The appellants first claim that the evidence adduced at trial was insufficient to sustain their convictions. In reviewing the sufficiency of the evidence, we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the government, and will uphold the jury's verdict if a rational jury could have found the essential elements of the crime proved beyond a reasonable doubt. United States v. Bishop, 959 F.2d 820, 829 (9th Cir.1992).
