          UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

                           v.

                  LARRY WRIGHT

                       Appellant

    On Appeal from the United States District Court
              for the District of New Jersey
                 (D.C. No. 03-cr-00556)
     District Judge: Honorable Jerome B. Simandle

   Submitted Pursuant to Third Circuit L.A.R. 34.1(a)
            Wednesday, November 3, 2004

Before: ALITO, BARRY, and FUENTES, Circuit Judges.

                 (Filed:May 11, 2005)

                      OPINION

                          -1-
FUENTES, Circuit Judge.

       Larry Wright pled guilty to a one count information charging him with robbery of a

United States Post Office, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 2114(a) and (2) . The District Court

sentenced Wright, pursuant to the United States Sentencing Guidelines, to a 150 month term

of imprisonment. Wright received a four level enhancement for “otherwise using” a

dangerous weapon while committing the offense in Count One of the information. On

appeal, he challenges his sentence under United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. __, 125 S. Ct. 738

(2005).

       Having determined that the sentencing issues appellant raises are best determined by

the District Court in the first instance, we will vacate the sentence and remand for

resentencing in accordance with Booker. Wright raises no challenge as to his conviction and

accordingly has waived any argument in this regard.
