Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that state issued tax credits are “property” within the meaning of federal wire and mail fraud statutes
  • holding that an email that was \a step in verifying\ costs submitted to the government furthered a fraud scheme
  • “So while the mailing or wire must promote the scheme in some manner, it need not contain a falsehood.”
  • “A tax credit is the public sector equivalent of a coupon; it reduces the amount that is otherwise owed.”
  • \We defer to both upward and downward variances so long as the district court provides an explanation tailored to the statutory sentencing factors that is not outside the bounds of reasonableness.\
  • “Tax credits are . . . the functional equivalent of government spending programs.”
