consideration in light of United States v. Davis, 588 U.S. ___,
139 S. Ct. 2319,
2324, 2326 (2019). We VACATE and REMAND the district court’s decision
with instructions to allow Mann to amend his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to assert a
claim based on the new, retroactive rule announced in Davis. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
15; Rules Governing § 2254 Cases, R. 12 (stating that the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure may be applied to the extent they are not inconsistent with any statutory
provisions or the rules therein); see also In re Hammoud, ___ F.3d ___,
2019 WL
3296800, at *3 (11th Cir. July 23, 2019) (holding that Davis announced a new rule
of constitutional law retroactively applicable to cases on collateral review by the
Supreme Court).
