    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Fred Nimoy CEASAR, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 04-41675.
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided April 19, 2006.
    
      James Lee Turner, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Mark Michael Dowd, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District OF Texas, Houston, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Eli Elmo Garza, Law Offices of Eli E. Garza, Victoria, TX, for Defendant-Appellee.
    Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Ceasar appeals from his sentence following his guilty-plea, arguing, inter alia, that the district court erred under Booker. The Government, while acknowledging error, argues that Ceasar waived it, precluding review, or forfeited it, subjecting it to plain error review, which he has failed to show. And it argues that even if he preserved the error, it was harmless.

“Waivers of constitutional rights not only must be voluntary but must be knowing, intelligent acts done with sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances and likely consequences; in other words, such a waiver must constitute an intentional relinquishment or abandonment of a known right or privilege.” Ceasar did not waive the error. His first counsel raised a Blakely objection to the PSR and then withdrew. Although his second counsel did not mention Blakely in his objections to the amended response, neither Ceasar nor his second counsel withdrew the initial objection. That Ceasar did not “renew” his challenge at sentencing is irrelevant, for he had an outstanding objection. Given the change of counsel in the middle of the case and that the district court never told Ceasar he was waiving his objection, we cannot say Ceasar knowingly waived his Blakely/Booker challenge.

Moreover, we cannot say that Ceasar forfeited the challenge. A forfeited error is one the defendant fails to make. Once Ceasar objected under Blakely, the issue was on the table and could only be preserved for appeal or waived.

Consequently, we review for harmless error, reversing unless the Government can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the district court would have imposed the same sentence under an advisory Guidelines regime. The Government points only to the fact that the district court sentenced Ceasar in the middle of the Guidelines range. In a recent unpublished opinion, we held that insufficient to show harmlessness. As a result, we VACATE Ceasar’s sentence and REMAND for resentencing.

Because we vacate Ceasar’s sentence and remand for resentencing, we do not address Ceasar’s other claims that the district court misapplied the Guidelines. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
