OPINION AND ORDER

CHRISTOPHER A. BOYKO, District Judge.

This matter is before the Court on Petitioner's Motion for Relief Under 28 U.S.C. §2255 (ECF #59). Respondent filed a Motion to Dismiss. (ECF #62). Petitioner filed a Response in Opposition to Motion to Dismiss. (ECF#64). Respondent filed a Reply to Gatson's Response in Opposition. (ECF#65). For the following reasons, the Court grants Respondent's Motion to Dismiss and dismisses Petitioner's Petition.

FACTS

Petitioner pled guilty to Felon in Possession of a Firearm and Felon in Possession of a Firearm with a prior misdemeanor Domestic Violence conviction. On March 10, 2014, the Court sentenced Petitioner to 180 months as an Armed Career Criminal under 18 U.S.C. § 924(e). Petitioner filed a timely Notice of Appeal arguing that his previous Arson conviction and two felony Domestic Violence convictions were not valid Armed Career Criminal Act ("ACCA") predicates. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the sentence, finding that Petitioner's previous convictions qualified as ACCA predicates.

Petitioner moved for a Petition for Rehearing before the original panel. The Court of Appeals summarily denied the Petition. Petitioner then filed a Petition for Certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States. On June 16, 2015, the Supreme Court denied Petitioner's Certiorari Petition. On June 21, 2016, Petitioner filed the instant Petition for Relief Under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, asserting that his sentence should be vacated pursuant to the Supreme Court's decision in Johnson v. United States, 135 S.Ct. 2551 (2015).

STANDARD OF REVIEW

Section 2255 of Title 28, United States Code, provides:

In order to prevail upon a §2255 motion, the movant must allege as a basis for relief: `(1) an error of constitutional magnitude; (2) a sentence imposed outside the statutory limits; or (3) an error of fact or law that was so fundamental as to render the entire proceeding invalid.'" Mallett v. United States, 334 F.3d 496-497 (6th Cir. 2003), quoting Weinberger v. United States, 268 F.3d 346, 351 (6th Cir.2001).

ANALYSIS

Respondent correctly concludes that the Supreme Court's decision in Johnson does not entitle Petitioner to post-conviction relief. The ACCA has three clauses, each of which describes a type of valid Armed Career Criminal predicate. The first is the "elements" or "use of force" clause, which states that a crime that "has as an element the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force against the person of another" is an ACCA predicate. 18 U.S.C. § 924(e). The second is the "enumerated felony" clause, which states that a predicate includes generic versions of "burglary, arson, or extortion, or involves use of explosives." Id.; United States v. Gatson, 776 F.3d 410 (6th Cir. 2015). The third clause, which the Supreme Court invalidated as unconstitutionally vague in Johnson, is the residual clause, which included crimes that "otherwise involves conduct that presents a serious potential risk of physical injury to another." 18 U.S.C. § 924(e).

Here, The Sixth Circuit held that Petitioner's Arson conviction qualified as an ACCA predicate under the enumerated felony clause. The Sixth Circuit held that his two felony Domestic Violence convictions qualified as ACCA predicates under the elements clause. Petitioner argues that his claim is further supported by the Supreme Court's decision in Mathis v. United States, 136 S.Ct. 2243 (2016). Respondent correctly points out that the Sixth Circuit has re-affirmed the unequivocal holdings in decisions published after both Johnson and Mathis and neither case provides Petitioner with a basis for relief.

The Court agrees with Respondent. The Sixth Circuit expressly held that Petitioner's two convictions fell under the enumerated felony and use of force clauses of the ACCA. Petitioner is unable to tie the Sixth Circuit's decision in his case to the residual clause struck down in Johnson and cannot show any clearly erroneous ruling that results in a manifest injustice. Consideration of a matter previously decided in the case is precluded unless extraordinary circumstances exist. United States v. Garcia, 496 F.3d 495 (6th Cir. 2007). Petitioner still qualifies for the ACCA enhancement.

Therefore, for the foregoing reasons Respondent's Motion to Dismiss is granted and Petitioner's Motion to Vacate is dismissed.

Furthermore, the Court declines to issue a certificate of appealability.

28 U.S.C. §2253(c) states:

Petitioner has failed to make a substantial showing that he was denied any constitutional right. Therefore, the Court will not issue a certificate of appealability.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
