How courts have described this case

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

  • holding, as a matter of first impression, that “aiding and abetting a completed Hobbs Act robbery qualifies as a crime violence under § 924(c)”
  • explaining that because the acts of the principal become those of the aider and abettor as a matter of law, a conviction for aiding and abetting completed Hobbs Act robbery qualified as a crime of violence under § 924(c)
  • considering the same issue after Taylor and holding that, “because the force re- quired for completed Hobbs Act robbery is sufficient to satisfy the elements clause, the force required for an aiding and abetting con- viction is necessarily also sufficient” (citation omitted)
