Carlos GUTIERREZ, Petitioner-Appellant, v. UNITED STATES of America, Respondent-Appellee, 177 F. App'x 510

PER CURIAM. Carlos Gutierrez was convicted after a jury trial of four drug offenses and was sentenced to 360 months. His convictions and sentence were affirmed on direct appeal. See United States v. Gutierrez, 367 F.3d 733 (8th Cir.2004). Subsequent to his sentencing the United States Supreme Court decided Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004), and United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005) , and by this motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 Gutierrez seeks their application to his sentence.

The district court denied relief but granted a certificate of appealability. Since Blakely and Booker do not apply retroactively, Gutierrez is not entitled to the ruling he seeks. See Never Misses A Shot v. United States, 413 F.3d 781 (8th Cir.2005) (per curiam). Accordingly, we affirm the judgement of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. . The Honorable John R. Tunheim, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota.
