What is the test for overturning a finding of insufficient evidence to overturn a sexual assault conviction?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Tejeda, G050029 (Cal. App. 2015):

favorable to the judgment to determine whether it discloses evidence that is reasonable, credible, and of solid value such that a reasonable trier of fact could find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. [Citations.] Reversal on this ground is unwarranted unless it appears "that upon no hypothesis whatever is there sufficient substantial evidence to support [the conviction]."'" (People v. Veale (2008) 160 Cal.App.4th 40, 45.) "Given this court's limited role on appeal, defendant bears an enormous burden in claiming there is insufficient evidence to sustain his molestation convictions." (Id. at p. 46.)
