P. v. Araya
A jury convicted defendant and appellant Michael Araya of first degree burglary of an inhabited dwelling. (Pen. Code,[1] 459, 460.) On appeal, Araya claims the trial court erred in denying his motion for a new trial because it did not give effect to its own doubts as to Araya's guilt. As we explain more fully, the record shows the trial court did not entertain the serious doubts which would have permitted it to overturn the jury's verdict.
