Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTION PRESENTED Whether aiding and abetting a Hobbs Act robbery is a “crime of violence” under the elements clause, 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(8)(A), following this Court’s decision in United States v. Taylor, which established that an attempted Hobbs Act robbery fails to align with it. Relatedly, whether the categorical approach for determining whether an offense meets the elemental requirements of § 924(c)(3)(A) should be applied to aiding-and-abetting offenses. @)
