    Wayne R. Andersen, Judge.
    ROY MOSLEY,
    Defendant-Appellant.
    Order
    In 2004 we affirmed Roy Mosley’s conviction under 21 U.S.C. §846 for a drug
    conspiracy. See United States v. Kyser, No. 02-2998 (7th Cir. June 24, 2004) (unpublished
    order). Mosley then filed and lost a collateral attack under 28 U.S.C. §2255. In 2009
    Mosley asked the district court to correct a clerical error. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 36. He
    contends that the judgment should have referred to crack cocaine, and 21 U.S.C. §841,
    as well as §846.
    ∗ This successive appeal has been submitted to the original panel under Operating Procedure 6(b). After
    examining the briefs and the record, we have concluded that oral argument is unnecessary. See Fed. R.
    App. P. 34(a); Cir. R. 34(f).
    No. 09-2678                                                                  Page 2
    It was apparent to the district judge, as it is to us, that Mosley’s goal is not the
    addition of a citation to the judgment, but a fresh chance to get a reduction in his
    sentence. His brief makes this explicit by contending that, if the judgment is amended in
    any particular, even to correct a typographical error, the district court must resentence
    him under United States v. Booker, 
    543 U.S. 220
    (2005). The district court ruled that the
    judgment is fine as it stands (because the conviction rests on §846 rather than §841) and
    denied the motion; we agree.
    The Supreme Court has not declared Booker retroactive to cases on collateral
    review, nor has Mosley satisfied the statutory conditions for filing a second collateral
    attack. The decision of the district court is affirmed.
