UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Femi JOHNSON, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 04-2406.
    United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.
    June 7, 2006.
    Gabriel A. Fuentes, Office of the United States Attorney, Chicago, IL, for PlaintiffAppellee.
    Douglas G. Smith, Kirkland & Ellis, Chicago, IL, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before Hon. WILLIAM J. BAUER, Circuit Judge, Hon. RICHARD A. POSNER, Circuit Judge, Hon. DANIEL A. MANION, Circuit Judge.
   ORDER

On Paladino remand, the district judge stated that he would have imposed the same guidelines sentence that he imposed originally had he known that the guidelines were merely advisory and not mandatory. Such a resentence is presumptively reasonable and in this case the presumption has not been rebutted, the judge having fully considered the defendant’s arguments for a lower standard in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a).

AFFIRMED.
