An attorney for a former student at the State University of New York at Potsdam argued before the Court of Appeals on Thursday that his client’s testimony about an alleged case of sexual misconduct should have been given equal weight against hearsay testimony from his accuser.
Lloyd Grandy, an attorney from Ogdensburg, argued that the testimony of his client—the former student—at a disciplinary hearing in 2014 should not have been dismissed simply because it was contradicted by the alleged victim’s account.
