Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:04-CV-727

Before BENAVIDES, CLEMENT, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Terry Lee Owens, federal prisoner # 29251-077, appeals the
district court’s summary dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241
petition, challenging his sentence for distributing 124.9 grams
of cocaine base. He argues that under Blakely v. Washington,

base and (2) the two-point enhancement for his role as a manager
or supervisor. He asserts that it would be inadequate and

Penitentiary,
305 F.3d 343, 347-48 (5th Cir. 2002).
Owens’s argument is unavailing in light of this court’s
decision in Padilla v. United States, F.3d ,
2005 WL
1595291, *2 (5th Cir. July 8, 2005) (No. 04-50567).
AFFIRMED.
