 It is a lower standard of proof than the "preponderance of the evidence" standard.The standard does not require the fact-finder to weigh conflicting evidence, and merely requires the investigator or prosecutor to present the bare minimum of material credible evidence to support the allegations against the subject, or in support of the allegation; see "Valmonte v. Bane," 18 F.3d 992 (2nd Cir.1994).
