PER CURIAM:

             Appellants petition this court for rehearing of their

earlier appeals.        In light of United States v. Booker, 125 S. Ct.

738 (2005), and United States v. Hughes, ___ F.3d ___, 2005 WL

147059    (4th   Cir.    Jan.   24,   2005),   we   grant   the   petition   for

rehearing.       We find that the district court plainly erred in

imposing sentences that exceeded the maximum allowed based on facts

established by Appellants’ guilty pleas.            We therefore vacate their

sentences and remand these cases for proceedings consistent with

Hughes.   We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                        VACATED AND REMANDED
