Denver, CO (Betting Express) - Samples that were taken during a hospital exam found DNA from Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant and the woman who is accusing him of sexual assault, but none were present from a third party whose DNA had shown up earlier in the case.

District Judge Terry Ruckriegle said this information that had been gathered shortly after the time of the alleged attack was erroneously posted on a state court Web site that also revealed the woman's last name.

By accidentally releasing this material, Bryant's lawyers might use the findings at his upcoming trial to strengthen their claim that the woman had sex with men other than Bryant during the week in question.

Ruckriegle said that the prosecution is not planning on introducing any of the same details, but an agreement with both parties must be reached by Friday.

Recently, Ruckrielge ruled in favor of the defense when he stated that the woman's sex life can be used as evidence at the trial. He said the information was necessary to help figure out the exact cause of her injuries and the source of DNA evidence.

According to Ruckriegle, Colorado's strict rape-shield law, which generally prevents the sex life of an alleged assault victim from being admitted as evidence, does not apply to all the information Bryant's lawyers want to introduce.

The 25-year-old Bryant is accused of sexually assaulting a woman over a year ago at a Colorado resort, a Class 3 felony with penalties ranging from four years to life in prison or 20 years to life on probation.

Bryant, who was in Colorado for surgery on his right knee at the time of the alleged assault, claimed the two had consensual sex.

The trial for the All-Star guard is set to begin in late August.
