SANDUSKY, Mich. (AP) ? A critical court hearing is resuming in a rural Michigan county where a woman is accused of faking cancer.

A Sanilac County judge must decide whether there?s enough evidence to send Sara Ylen?s (WHY?-lin) case to trial. The hearing picks up again Friday.

The last witness Tuesday was a pastor whose church held a fundraiser for Ylen last summer. He received a letter from a University of Michigan doctor confirming the Lexington woman had cancer, but investigators say it was forged.

Ylen is charged with fraud, false pretenses and using a computer to commit a crime. She received $100,000 worth of care from a hospice agency, bills that were paid by her insurer.

In Port Huron, Ylen is awaiting trial on a charge of making a false report of rape.
