How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • appellate court must examine all evidence, regardless of admissibility, when determining sufficiency of the evidence claim because sufficiency of evidence is not assessed upon a diminished record
  • when there are issues of admissibility and sufficiency of evidence, sufficiency is addressed first
  • “[A] challenge to the admissibility of evidence is separate from a sufficiency claim. Indeed, it is improper for a court, when reviewing a sufficiency challenge, to eliminate from its consideration any evidence which it deems to be inadmissible.”
