                      for the Eastern District of Texas
                           USDC No. 1:96-CR-101-2


Before WIENER, BENAVIDES, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
      Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Paul Mayweathers
raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Doublin, 
572 F.3d 235
,
236-39 (5th Cir. 2009), petition for cert. filed (Sept. 21, 2009) (No. 09-6657),
which rejected the argument that United States v. Booker, 
543 U.S. 220
(2005)
applies in 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) proceedings and held that a district court may
not reduce a sentence below the minimum provided in the amended Guidelines.



      *
      Pursuant to 5 TH C IR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion
should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited
circumstances set forth in 5 TH C IR. R. 47.5.4.
                               No. 09-40401

The Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, and the
judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
