State v. Dudoit

CONCURRING OPINION OF

LEVINSON, J.

I concur in the opinion of Richardson, C.J., but add this note as a reminder of the view I have expressed previously in my concurring opinion in State v. Butler, 51 Haw. 180, 186, 455 P.2d 4, 8 (1969) and in my dissenting opinion in State v. Rocker, 52 Haw. 336, 348, 475 P.2d 684, 691 (1970), and to which I still adhere, that we should make it clear that “substantial evidence” is that evidence which would justify a. reasonable trier of fact in finding that the defendant was guilty beyond any reasonable doubt.
