   MEMORANDUM

Peter Bernard Carey, Jr. appeals from the sentence imposed on remand for his conviction by guilty plea to possession with intent to distribute marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a), and we vacate and remand for re-sentencing.

United States v. Smith, 387 F.3d 826 (9th Cir.2004), which was published after the district court acted in this case, and which displaces this court’s prior remand, now controls. Thus we vacate the sentence and remand for re-sentencing in light of Smith. See id. at 834-35.

VACATED and REMANDED.
