Curtis D. Hall v. United States
1. Whether (as the court of appeals held) the categorical approach does not apply in any case in which the defendant was also convicted of "use[ of] a firearm" under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1) during the crime of conviction, because (in the circuit court's view) in such cases a court may find that the actual offense conduct involved the use or threat of force, meaning that the crime may be deemed a "crime of violence" even if the statute defining the crime does not include the "use, attempted use, or threatened us e of physical force" as a necessary element.

Whether (as the court of appeals held) the crime of bank robbery under 18 U.S.C. § 2113 qualifies as a "crime of violence" under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) (3)(A) even though the statute defining the crime does not include the "use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force" as a necessary element.
