¶1The petition by the state of Connecticut for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 61 Conn. App. 496 (AC 20436), is granted, limited to the following issues:

¶2“1. Did the Appellate Court properly conclude that the victim’s statement regarding fellatio on the defendant by the victim was not admissible under State v. Whelan, 200 Conn. 743, 513 A.2d 86, cert. denied, 479 U.S. 994, 107 S. Ct. 597, 93 L. Ed. 2d 589 (1986)?
