The following excerpt is from People v. Vaughn, C086582 (Cal. App. 2019):
When reviewing a trial court's denial of a motion to suppress, we defer to the court's factual findings, express or implied, where supported by substantial evidence. (People v. Glaser (1995) 11 Cal.4th 354, 362.) "In determining whether, on the facts so found, the search or seizure was reasonable under the Fourth Amendment, we exercise our independent judgment." (Ibid.)
