Whitney

MEMORANDUM **

Mark K. Whitney appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to maintaining a place for the purpose of cultivating marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 856 (a)(1). Whitney contends, and the government correctly agrees, that this case should be remanded pursuant to United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc), because Whitney was sentenced under the then-mandatory Sentencing Guidelines, and the record does not indicate whether the sentence imposed would have been materially different had the district court known that the Guidelines were advisory. We therefore remand for the district to answer that question and to proceed pursuant to Ameline .

REMANDED.
