What is the test for assessing an allegation of sexual assault in a criminal case?

"New York", United States of America

The following excerpt is from People v. Phillip, 58 Misc.3d 935, 60 N.Y.S.3d 650 (N.Y. Crim. Ct. 2017):

must consider all reasonable inferences that may be drawn from them ( People v. Jackson, 18 N.Y.3d 738, 741, 944 N.Y.S.2d 715, 967 N.E.2d 1160 [2012] ; see CPL 100.40 [1 ][c] ). Further, "[s]o long as the factual allegations of an information give an accused notice sufficient to prepare a defense and are adequately detailed to prevent a defendant from being tried twice for the same offense, they should be given a fair and not overly restrictive and technical reading" ( People v. Casey, 95 N.Y.2d 354, 360, 717 N.Y.S.2d 88, 740 N.E.2d 233 [2000] ).
