certiorari to resolve a Circuit split, the Supreme Court reversed. Woods v.
United States, 134 S. Ct. 557 (2013).
      As the Supreme Court has now decided the issue raised on appeal and
reversed our decision, we reverse the judgment of the district court and remand
for proceedings consistent with the order of the Supreme Court.
