In the Matter of Mark A. B., a Person Alleged to be a Juvenile Delinquent, Appellant. Chautauqua County Attorney, Respondent.
    [706 NYS2d 657]
   —Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: The petition, alleging that respondent committed acts that, if committed by an adult, would constitute the crime of sexual abuse in the first degree

(Penal Law § 130.65 [3]), together with the supporting depositions of the victim and his brother detailing the acts, complies with Family Court Act § 311.2 (3) (cf., Matter of Neftalí D., 85 NY2d 631, 634).
