1Opinion of the Court
ST. EVE, District Judge.
A jury convicted Petitioner Devon Groves for possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of ammunition by a felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and the district court sentenced him to the statutory maximum of 240 months in prison — 120 months on each count — to run consecutively. This court affirmed the judgment. See United States v. Groves, 559 F.3d 637 (7th Cir.2009). On March 2, 2011, Groves filed a motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. The district court denied Groves’s § 2255 motion, and we affirm.
