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. Following 'Kelly', the meaning of property was central to two high-profile cases in the Second Circuit, 'Blaszczak' and 'Gatto'.
