What is the test for a motion alleging that appellant was convicted on insufficient evidence?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Shepherd v. Nelson, 432 F.2d 1045 (9th Cir. 1970):
(2) It was alleged that appellant was convicted on insufficient evidence. But the face of the petition reveals that the testimony of the complaining witness provided sufficient evidence to sustain appellant's conviction against a due process attack. See Barquera v. People of State of California, 374 F.2d 177, 179-180 (9th Cir. 1967); Fernandez v. Klinger, 346 F.2d 210, 211 (9th Cir. 1965).
