                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Mississippi
                              USDC No. 1:01-CR-50-1


Before SMITH, PRADO, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        Bianca Fabione Vereen, federal prisoner # 06290-043, appeals the district
court’s denial of her 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion to reduce her sentence based
on the amendments to the crack cocaine Guideline. Vereen’s appeal waiver does
not bar this appeal. See United States v. Cooley, 590 F.3d 293, 296-97 (5th Cir.
2009). The Government’s motion to dismiss the appeal is DENIED.
        Vereen argues that, in light of United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220
(2005), the district court was authorized to reduce her sentence based on the new

       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .
R. 47.5.4.

advisory guidelines range and after consideration of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)
factors. She also contends that her career offender status did not preclude the
court from reducing her sentence. These issues are foreclosed by this court’s
decisions in United States v. Anderson, 591 F.3d 789, 790-91 (5th Cir. 2009) , and
United States v. Doublin, 572 F.3d 235, 236-39 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 130 S. Ct.
517 (2009). The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
