Property in Mail and Wire Fraud Cases: 'Kelly v. United States' and Its Aftermath

In 'Kelly v. United States', a unanimous Supreme Court held that a scheme was not intended to "obtain property" when its objective was to misuse government officials' regulatory powers, or when monetary losses were "incidental," and not the actual object of the scheme.
