The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Bancalari, 110 F.3d 1425 (9th Cir. 1997):
Bancalari next challenges the jury instructions on the ground that they did not properly set forth the requisite mens rea for aiding and abetting the 924(c) violation. Whether the jury instructions correctly sets forth the elements of a crime is reviewed de novo. United States v. Matta-Ballesteros, 71 F.3d 754, 771 (9th Cir.1995).
