Head Matter:
UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Daniel PACHECO-GONZALES, Defendant-Appellant.
No. 07-2393.
United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.
April 14, 2008.
Michael Donovan, Office of The United States Attorney, Chicago, IL, for PlaintiffAppellee.
Gary J. Ravitz, Ravitz & Palles, Chicago, IL, for Defendant-Appellant.
Before FRANK H. EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge, RICHARD A. POSNER, Circuit Judge and DIANE P. WOOD, Circuit Judge.

Opinion:
Order
The United States concedes that Pacheco-Gonzales has preserved on appeal a challenge to his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1), and that, in light of our opinion, he did not use a firearm in connection with any violent felony or drug offense that could be prosecuted in a court of the United States (as opposed to a state court). The petition for rehearing is therefore granted, and Pacheco-Gonzales's conviction under § 924(c)(1) is reversed. Because this means that all convictions of both defendants have been reversed, there is no longer any occasion for a remand to the district court.
