    United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.
    Feb. 11, 2009.
    Steven E. Butler, Mobile, AL, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Kristen Gartman Rogers, Christopher Knight, Sal-Federal Public Defender, Mobile, AL, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before DUBINA, CARNES and PRYOR, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Barry Leon Ardley, a federal prisoner convicted of crack cocaine offenses, appeals the district court’s reduction of his sentences under Amendment 706 and 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Ardley contends that the district court erroneously failed to apply United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), at his resentencing.

We review de novo a district court’s conclusions about the scope of its authority to reduce a sentence under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). United States v. Jones, 548 F.3d 1366, 1368 (11th Cir.2008).

In this case, Ardle/s original offense level was 38 and his criminal history category was I, giving him a guidelines range of 235 to 293 months. He was sentenced to 293 months. After Amendment 706 became retroactive, Ardley’s offense level dropped to 36 and his guidelines range became 188 to 235 months. In resentenc-ing Ardley under § 3582(c)(2), the district court noted that “[ijmposing a similar high-end sentence under the revised guidelines would result in a sentence of 235 months.” . Without' elaboration the district court then stated its intention to resen-tence Ardley to 235 months. Ardley objected because he wanted a sentence below the amended guidelines range, and he argued that under Booker the court had the authority to give him such a sentence. Ardley asked the district court to apply Booker, or at least to clarify whether it believed that Booker applied and if not, to state why not. The district court did not respond to that request, but instead entered its order sentencing Ardley to 235 months. Therefore, it is not entirely clear whether the district court believed that it coulcl use Booker to deviate below the amended guidelines range and simply declined to, or whether the district court believed that Booker was entirely inapplicable to resentencings under § 3582(c)(2). Ardley asks us to presume that the district court believed that Booker was inapplicable.

Ardley argues only that the district court erred in failing to apply Booker at his § 3582(c) resentencing. Recently this circuit joined the Eighth, Fourth, and Tenth Circuits in holding that Booker does not apply at resentencing proceedings under § 3582(c)(2). United States v, Melvin, 556 F.3d 1190 (11th Cir.2009); see also United States v. Starks, 551 F.3d 839 (8th Cir.2009); United States v. Dunphy, 551 F.3d 247 (4th Cir.2009); United States v. Rhodes, 549 F.3d 833 (10th Cir.2008). There was no error at the resentencing.

AFFIRMED.
