MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Anderson, 989 F.2d 310 (9th Cir. 1993):

5 United States v. Lane, 909 F.2d 895, 900 (6th Cir.1990), doesn't reach this question. It holds attempted burglary is covered under the "otherwise involves ... a serious potential risk of physical injury" clause, id. at 903, but doesn't decide whether attempted burglary is covered under the "burglary" clause, id. at 902.
