OPINION OF THE COURT

Appellant Maurice Cumberbatch’s response to this Court’s Order dated March I, 2005, regarding the applicability of United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), requests that this Court “remand his case for reconsideration of sentence in light of the discretion now allowed under United States v. Booker.” Pursuant to said Order, such a statement is to be “construed as waiving any issues related to the conviction.” We therefore address only the sentencing issue.

Cumberbatch pled guilty to Count II (possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 924(c)) and Count III (possession of a firearm by a previously convicted felon, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1)) of a three-count indictment. The District Court sentenced Cumberbatch to a total of 90 months in prison, which consisted of the statutory minimum of 60 months for Count II, possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking, and an additional 30 months calculated under the Sentencing Guidelines for Count III, possession of a firearm by a previously convicted felon.

In United States v. Davis, 407 F.3d 162 (3d Cir. 2005) (en banc), this Court stated that except in limited circumstances, we will presume prejudice and direct a remand for resentencing where the District Court imposed a sentence in the belief that the applicable Sentencing Guidelines were mandatory. Here, Davis does not affect the 60-month sentence imposed on Cumberbatch for Count II, possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking, because the statutory minimum punishment for that offense is 60 months. How *139 ever, our review of the record in this case shows that the District Court based the 30-month sentence imposed on Cumber-batch for Count III, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, on the Sentencing Guidelines, apparently applying them as mandatory in violation of Booker.

Having determined that the sentencing issues Cumberbatch raises are best determined by the District Court in the first instance, we will vacate Cumberbatch’s sentence with regard to Count III, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and remand this matter for resentencing in accordance with Booker.
