Appeal from the United States
District Court for the Western District

No. 05-C-49-C

Chief Judge.
O R D E R
In 1996 a jury found Xavier McClinton guilty of conspiracy to distribute
cocaine, 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 846, and the district court sentenced him to 188
months in prison after finding by a preponderance of the evidence several facts that
increased his sentencing guideline range. In this action under 28 U.S.C. § 2255,
McClinton seeks to have his sentence vacated in light of United States v. Booker,
125 S. Ct. 738 (2005). McClinton acknowledges that we have already decided that
Booker does not apply retroactively in collateral proceedings, McReynolds v. United
States, 397 F.3d 479 (7th Cir. 2005). That case addresses the arguments he now
presents, and we see no need to revisit it.
AFFIRMED.
UNPUBLISHED ORDER
