SMITH, Circuit Judge.
Keith Thompson was convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). The district court 1 sentenced Thompson to 46 months’ imprisonment.

Booker, — U.S. -, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005); that the district court erred in failing to instruct the jury on a defense of justification; and that the district court erred by not suppressing evidence.
