164127P.pdf   03/13/2018  Thomas Boaz  v.  United States of America
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-4127
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Springfield   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Loken and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Habeas Case - motion to vacate. Boaz's 1974 conviction for exhibiting a 
   deadly weapon in violation of Arizona law qualifies as a predicate offense 
   under the force clause of the Armed Career Criminal Act and thus the 
   district court's denial of a motion to vacate his sentence after Johnson 
   v. United States is affirmed. Arizona statute is materially 
   indistinguishable from a Missouri statute (Mo. Rev. Stat. Sec. 
   571.030.1(4)), which has been held to satisfy the force clause of the 
   ACCA.
