Delligatti v. United States

Summary

The Supreme Court affirmed the Second Circuit’s judgment that a New York attempted second‑degree murder offense, even when committed by omission, qualifies as a “crime of violence” under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(3)(A). The Court held that the statutory term “use” of physical force includes the knowing or intentional causation of bodily injury or death by omission.
