MEMORANDUM *
Justin Youngman appeals his 51-month sentence under the United States Sentencing Guidelines. Youngman appeals the district court’s decision that he cannot collaterally attack a prior Washington State conviction and the district court’s application of the Sentencing Guidelines. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
Application Note 6 to United States Sentencing Guideline § 4A1.2 does not confer an independent right to challenge a state court conviction collaterally.1 Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s conclusion that Youngman may not collaterally attack his Washington State conviction.
Youngman raised a challenge to the then mandatory Sentencing Guidelines in the trial court. Because Youngman has been subjected to nonconstitutional sentencing error he may seek resentencing under the post-United States v. Booker sentencing system.2 Accordingly, we vacate Young-man’s sentence and remand for resentencing consistent with Booker.
Sentence VACATED AND REMANDED.
