UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,                       Appeal from the United
      Plaintiff-Appellee,                       States District Court
                                                for the Central
No. 06-2653                  v.                 District of Illinois.

JOSE L. YANEZ,                                  No. 90 CR 40039
      Defendant-Appellant.                      Michael M. Mihm,
                                                Judge.



                                  Order

     We remanded this case to the district court with
instructions to apply Amendment 591 to the Sentencing
Guidelines. Retroactive application of a specially designated
amendment under 18 U.S.C. §3582(c)(2) is not a collateral
attack, so Yanez does not require permission under 28 U.S.C.
§2255 ¶8.

     The district court concluded on remand that Amendment 591
does not afford Yanez any relief. Amendment 591 requires
district judges to start with the guideline applicable to the
offense of conviction under the table in the Manual, and it may
reduce the sentences imposed after a district judge started with
some other Guideline. The district court found that it had
started with the appropriate Guideline.

     Yanez argues to the contrary--but not based on anything in
Amendment 591 or the Guidelines Manual. Instead he maintains
that, under Apprendi v. New Jersey, 

(2000), and its
successors, his maximum sentence was lower than the one the
district court used in its calculations, because the jury had
not found the facts needed to increase his sentencing range. But
Amendment 591 is not designed to reopen federal sentences for
retroactive application of Apprendi. Yanez has filed and lost
one collateral attack; he is not entitled to wage another under
the cover of Amendment 591. The only argument properly open now
is one based on §3582(c)(2) and Amendment 591. The district
judge properly concluded that these do not require a reduction
of Yanez's sentence.
