United States Ninth Circuit
US v. Sanchez Molinar, 15-10430
Affirming the district court's imposition of a sentencing enhancement based on the defendant's prior conviction for attempted armed robbery, which constituted a crime of violence under the US Sentencing Guidelines because although armed robbery in Arizona is no longer a categorical crime of violence, Arizona's robbery statute is a categorical match to generic robbery, meaning that the conviction did constitute a crime of violence under the enumerated felonies clause.
