MEMORANDUM **

Betty Lou Lewis appeals from the district court’s judgment denying her 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.

Lewis contends that the district court’s failure to submit the issue of drug quantity to the jury for its determination by proof beyond a reasonable doubt deprived her of her Sixth Amendment right to trial by jury, in violation of Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004). Lewis also contends that the district court violated her Sixth Amendment right of confrontation by admitting, over her objection, a newspaper article from the Modesto Bee, in violation of Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36, 124 S.Ct. 1354, 158 L.Ed.2d 177 (2004).

Lewis’ Blakely claim is foreclosed by United States v. Cruz, 423 F.3d 1119, 1121 (9th Cir. 2005) (holding that neither Blakely nor United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. *703220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), applies retroactively to cases on collateral review). Likewise, Lewis’ confrontation argument is foreclosed by Whorton v. Bockting, — U.S. -, 127 S.Ct. 1173, 1184, 167 L.Ed.2d 1 (2007) (holding that Crawford has no application to cases on collateral review).

We also conclude that the district court correctly determined that there was no Apprendi violation as the sentence did not exceed the statutory maximum. See Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 489, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000); see also 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(c).

Lewis’ motion requesting that her appeal of the denial of her § 2255 motion petition be heard and determined, filed on April 26, 2007, is denied as moot.

AFFIRMED.
