    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. John WALTZ, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 04-1967.
    United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.
    July 22, 2005.
    Timothy A. Bass, Office of the United States Attorney, Urbana Division, Urbana, IL, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Tiffani D. Johnson, Office of the Federal Public Defender, Urbana, IL, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before RIPPLE, MANION, and SYKES, Circuit Judges.
   ORDER

This court ordered a limited remand so the district court could state on the record whether the sentence remains appropriate now that United States v. Booker, — U.S. -, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), has limited the Guidelines to advisory status. See United States v. Paladino, 401 F.3d 471 (7th Cir.2005).

The chief district judge has now replied that he would today impose the same sentence, knowing of the Guidelines’ advisory status. The range under the Guidelines is 151 to 188 months, and Waltz’s sentence of 151 months is the lowest possible sentence. The defendant did not respond to our invitation to file an argument concerning the appropriate disposition of the appeal in light of the district court’s response. We do not see any reason why Waltz’s sentence would be deemed “unreasonable” in post-Booker practice. The judgment of the district court therefore is Affirmed.
