The following excerpt is from People v. Delarios, B234079 (Cal. App. 2012):
As previously noted, "the test of whether evidence is sufficient to support a conviction is 'whether, after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.' [Citations.]" (People v. Holt, supra, 15 Cal.4th at pp. 667-668.) "We draw all reasonable inferences in support of the judgment." (People v. Wader, supra, 5 Cal.4th at p. 640.)
