The following excerpt is from People v. Najera, G044246, Super. Ct. No. 08WF1517 (Cal. App. 2011):
"Contrary to what defendant suggests, the judgment is not subject to reversal on appeal simply because the prosecution relied heavily on circumstantial evidence and because conflicting inferences on matters bearing on guilt could be drawn at trial." (People v. Millwee (1998) 18 Cal.4th 96, 132.)
