What is the test for determining whether the prosecution sustained its burden of proving the elements of a sentence enhancement beyond a reasonable doubt?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Mathis, B282869 (Cal. App. 2019):

"On review, we examine the record in the light most favorable to the judgment to ascertain whether it is supported by substantial evidence. In other words, we determine whether a rational trier of fact could have found that the prosecution sustained its burden of proving the elements of the sentence enhancement beyond a reasonable doubt. [Citations.]" (People v. Delgado (2008) 43 Cal.4th 1059, 1067.)
