  MEMORANDUM
  
   **
  

  Michael Richard Stearns appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 57-month sentence for being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(a)(2). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we vacate and remand.
 

  Stearns contends that his guilty plea was involuntary and that the district court did not comply with Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11 before accepting his guilty plea. He seeks to withdraw his guilty plea based on the alleged deficiencies. The government acquiesces in Stearns’s request for relief. We vacate Stearns’s conviction and sentence, and remand to the district court with instructions to allow Stearns to withdraw his guilty plea and for further proceedings.
 

  VACATED AND REMANDED.
