O R D E R
On July 31, 2012, the Supreme Court of the United States granted Idowu Akiwowo’s
petition for a writ of certiorari, vacated this court’s judgment in the case, and remanded for
further consideration in light of Dorsey v. United States, 567 U.S. –,
132 S. Ct. 2321 (2012). In
accordance with Circuit Rule 54, both parties have filed statements of position setting forth
the action that they believe should be taken. Each has recommended that Akiwowo is
No. 11‐1996 Page 2
entitled to resentencing, in light of Dorsey, and we agree with that assessment. We thus
VACATE Akiwowo’s sentence and REMAND this case to the district court for the Northern
District of Illinois for re‐sentencing under the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, as required by
Dorsey.
SO ORDERED.
