Marcus Sykes v. United States

Summary

The Court affirmed the Seventh Circuit, holding that Indiana’s vehicle‑flight offense under Ind. Code § 35‑44‑3‑3(b)(1)(A) is a "violent felony" for purposes of the Armed Career Criminal Act. The decision rests on the categorical approach and the residual‑clause risk analysis, and it notes that the dissenting opinions argue the statute is non‑violent or that the ACCA residual clause is unconstitutionally vague.
