Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564 ; accord, In re Julian R. (2009) 47 Cal.4th 487, 498-499 .) In other words, “the burden is on an appellant to demonstrate, on the basis of the record presented to the appellate court, that the trial court committed an error that justifies reversal of the judgment.” (Jameson v. Desta (2018) 5 Cal.5th 594, 609 (Jameson).) To meet this burden, the appellant must “provide an adequate record to assess er

2026As appellants bear the burden “to provide an adequate record to assess error” (Maria P., supra, 43 Cal.3d at p. 1295 ), these issues must be resolved against Kolstad.

2026MBC also cites Espejo v. The Copley Press, Inc. (2017) 13 Cal.App.5th 329, 382 (Espejo), for the proposition “a fee award must be reversed and remanded where a trial court fails to follow the Supreme Court’s Hensley v. Eckerhart (1983) 461 U.S. 424 , 437 two-step inquiry, and fails to explain why a fee reduction is unwarranted in light of a plaintiff’s limited success.” In 8 We note MBC has not provided a record of what was discussed at the motion hearing, and “ ‘[i]t is the burden of the party challenging the fee award on appeal to provide an adequate record to assess error.” ( Ketchum, supra

2025Caranizadeh further asserts that Zamani has no legal basis for appealing the order and that Zamani “has again succeeded in forcing [Caranizadeh] to incur needless attorney fees.” “Attorney fees are recoverable as costs only where expressly authorized by contract or statute.” (Stratton v. Beck (2018) 30 Cal.App.5th 901, 909 ; see § 1021.) In reviewing an award for attorney fees, “ ‘ “[a]ll intendments and presumptions are indulged to support [the judgment] on matters as to which the record is silent, and error must be affirmatively shown.” ’ [Citation.] . . . ‘It is the burden of the party chal

2026C.V., as the appellant, bears the burden of “provid[ing] an adequate record to assess error.” (Nielsen v. Gibson (2009) 178 Cal.App.4th 318, 324 .) Without citations to the record and a reporter’s transcript, he has failed to provide an adequate record to assess his contentions that insufficient evidence supports the court’s implicit findings or that the court improperly precluded him from presenting rebuttal evidence.

2026“It is the burden of the party challenging a judgment on appeal to provide an adequate record to assess error.” (Nielsen v. Gibson (2009) 178 Cal.App.4th 318, 324 .) “ ‘[I]f the record is inadequate for meaningful review, the appellant defaults and the decision of the trial court should be affirmed.’ ” (Gee v. American Realty & Construction, Inc. (2002) 99 Cal.App.4th 1412, 1416 .) Because Osunde has not provided us with an adequate record to meaningfully review the summary adjudication order, he has forfeited any arguments challenging that order. 2.

Second, LaCasse does not acknowledge the applicable standard of review (abuse of discretion) or explain how the trial court abused its discretion in considering the Benedict Declaration.

Appellant also contends the commissioner erred in failing to recuse herself under section 170.1 (“Grounds for disqualification”).

2024Appellant’s Burden on Appeal It is well-settled that “[a]ppealed judgments and orders are presumed correct, and error must be affirmatively shown.” (Hernandez v. California Hospital Medical Center (2000) 78 Cal.App.4th 498, 502 , citing Denham v. Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564 .) As the party challenging the court’s presumably correct findings and rulings, Eagle Mist is required “to provide an adequate record to assess error.” (Maria P. v. Riles (1987) 43 Cal.3d 1281, 1295 .) “Failure to provide an adequate record on an issue requires that the issue be resolved against appellant.” (Ba

California Hospital Medical Center (2000) 78 Cal.App.4th 498, 502 .) “Failure to provide an adequate record on an issue requires that the issue be resolved against [the appellant].” (Hernandez, at p. 502.) That Rodriguez is acting in propria persona does not excuse him from the burden of providing an adequate record.

2016(In re Marriage of Arceneaux (1990) 51 Cal.3d 1130, 1133 (Arceneaux).) It is the burden of a party challenging a judgment on appeal to provide an adequate record to assess error.

2013(Denham v. Superior Court, supra, 2 Cal.3d at pp. 564, 566.) An appellant must "[s]upport any reference to a matter in the record by a citation to the volume and page number of the record where the matter appears." (Rule 8.204(a)(1)(C).) An appellant must meet the burden of providing an adequate record (In re Kathy P. (1979) 25 Cal.3d 91, 102 ) and, in 5 the absence of an adequate record to assess error, an appellate claim will be resolved against an appellant.

2013(Ibid.) In order to do so, the appellant must provide the reviewing court with “an adequate record to assess error.” (Maria P. v. Riles (1987) 43 Cal.3d 1281, 1295 ; accord, In re Kathy P. (1979) 25 Cal.3d 91, 102 ; 9 Witkin, Cal. Procedure, supra, Appeal, § 628, p. 704 [“The appellant must affirmatively show error by an adequate record.”].) Where an appellant fails to furnish an adequate record, his or her claim “must be resolved against them.” (Maria P., at p. 1296; accord, Foust v. San Jose Construction Co., Inc.

2024This is not only a general principle of appellate practice but an ingredient of the constitutional doctrine of reversible error.’ ” (Denham v. Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564 .) The appellant must “provide an adequate record to assess error.” (Maria P. v. Riles (1987) 43 Cal.3d 1281, 1295 .) “ ‘Failure to provide an adequate record on an issue requires that the issue be resolved against [appellant].’ ” (Foust v. San Jose Construction Co., Inc.

San Jose Construction Co., Inc. (2011) 198 Cal.App.4th 181, 186 .) Here, appellant challenges a ruling issued following a lengthy evidentiary hearing at which the court heard and considered extensive testimony.

The record in the instant case contains more than sufficient evidence to support the award of fees and costs, including a detailed description of the hourly rates charged by attorneys and paralegals retained by DTD that worked on the case and the number of hours worked and the tasks completed in what turned out to be a highly-contentious and lengthy matter between the parti
