ADRIESE THOMAS,
     Defendant-Appellant.                    James B. Zagel,
                                             Judge.


                                    ORDER

       On limited remand pursuant to United States v. Paladino, 

(7th
Cir. 2005), the district court responded that it would have imposed the same
sentence had it known the guidelines were not mandatory. Thomas’s 24-month
sentence is in the middle of a properly calculated guideline range and is therefore
presumptively reasonable. See United States. v Mykytiuk, 

, 608 (7th
Cir. 2005). And because Thomas declined our invitation to file memoranda
concerning the district court’s response, she failed to rebut this presumption.
Nothing in the record suggests this sentence is unreasonable, thus, we AFFIRM the
judgment.
