McNally v R

''McNally v R'' [Crim 1051 (2013)], is a 2013 court decision in which the English and Wales Court of Appeals (EWCA) ruled that Scottish student Justine McNally's prior conviction of six counts of sexual assault by penetration would be upheld. McNally's sentence, however, was reduced. The convictions were made under the Sexual Offences Act 2003. Various other cases were explored to maintain the conviction, expanding the previously slim "rape by deception" laws. ''McNally v R'' was one of the first cases to display gender fraud or gender deception arguments. Provided by Wikipedia
