Whether federal bank robbery that requires only slight force is covered by the force clause of 18 U.S.C. §924(c)(3)(A)

QUESTION PRESENTED In Stokeling v. United States, No. 17-5554, this Court has granted certiorari to resolve whether a state robbery offense that requires a purposeful use, attempted use, or threatened use of only slight force is picked up by the force clause of the Armed Career Criminal Act, 18 U.S.C. §924(e)(2)(B)(i). This case provides an excellent companion case for resolving whether federal bank robbery—which similarly requires a purposeful use, attempted use, or threatened use of only slight force in both its simple and strong-arm variants—is picked up by 18 U.S.C. §924(c)(3)(A)’s nearly identical force clause. i CONTENTS Question Presented L Contents DL AUtHOLItY eee cecc
