UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
               Plaintiff-Appellee,                   Appeal from the United States District
                                                     Court for the Eastern District of
       v.                                            Wisconsin

DRACY L. JORDAN,                                     No. 2:10-cr-00099-CNC-1
               Defendant-Appellant.
                                                     Charles N. Clevert, Jr., Chief Judge

                                          ORDER

    On July 31, 2012, the Supreme Court of the United States granted Dracy L. Jordan’s
petition for a writ of certiorari, vacated this court’s judgment in the case, and remanded for
further consideration in light of Dorsey v. United States, 567 U.S. –, 132 S. Ct. 2321 (2012). In
accordance with Circuit Rule 54, both parties have filed statements of position setting forth
the action that they believe should be taken. Each has recommended that Jordan is entitled
to resentencing, in light of Dorsey, and we agree with that assessment. We thus VACATE
Jordan’s sentence and REMAND this case to the district court for the Eastern District of
Wisconsin for re-sentencing under the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, as required by Dorsey.

                                                                                  SO ORDERED.
