The following excerpt is from Baker v. Creek, H036815 (Cal. App. 2012):
One of the most fundamental rules of appellate review is that an appealed judgment or order is presumed to be correct. "All intendments and presumptions are indulged to support it on matters as to which the record is silent, and error must be affirmatively shown." (Denham v. Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564.)
