New York Court of Appeals

The People of the State of New York v. Terence McCray

May 1, 201423 N.Y.3d 193

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in withholding the complainant's mental health records. The court applied the Brady materiality standard and concluded there was only a remote possibility that disclosure would have led to the defendant's acquittal.
