The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Fabian, 555 F.3d 66 (2nd Cir. 2002):
In December 2002, we affirmed Fabian's conviction, rejecting his argument that the Government failed to prove that his crimes affected interstate commerce. We held that, as a matter of law, drug dealing and loansharking have an effect on interstate commerce. See United States v. Fabian, 312 F.3d 550, 555-56 (2d Cir.2002). That same month, we issued the mandate affirming Fabian's conviction.
