143615P.pdf   02/11/2016  United States  v.  Antonio Rice
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3615
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Benton and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. On the record here, defendant's state 
   conviction for second degree battery under Ark. Code Ann. Section 5-13-202 
   (2006)included the use of violent force as an element since it is 
   impossible to cause bodily injury without using force capable of producing 
   that result; as a result the conviction was for a crime of violence, and 
   the district court correctly calculated his base offense level under Sec. 
   2K2.1 of the guidelines. Judge Kelly, dissenting.
