ORDER
This cause is before the Court on the Petitioner's "Motion to Vacate, Set Aside, or Correct Sentence Pursuant to § 2255(3)" (Civ. Doc. 1 (substituted signed motion), Crim. Docs. 1743 (unsigned motion) and 1745 (signed motion)), filed December 16, 2005.
The Petitioner asserts that the United States Supreme Court cases of United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005) andBlakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296 (2004) are new rules of constitutional law made retroactive to cases on collateral review. As a result, she claims that she is due to be re-sentenced in accordance with those cases.
The Court must dismiss the Petitioner's § 2255 motion without prejudice. The Court is without jurisdiction to consider it inasmuch as it is a successive motion filed without first obtaining permission from the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeal. Moreover, the Eleventh Circuit has held that Booker andBlakely do not qualify as new rules of constitutional law for § 2255 purposes because the Supreme Court has not made them retroactively available on collateral review. In re Anderson, 396 F.3d 1336, 1339 (11th Cir. 2005) (addressing Booker), In re Dean, 375 F.3d 1287, 1290 (11th Cir. 2004) (addressing Blakely). Accordingly, it is
This is the Defendant's third § 2255 motion. See Crim. Docs. 1439, 1459, 1548 and 1636.

That the Petitioner's third § 2255 motion (Civ.Doc. 1, Crim.Docs. 1743 and 1745) is dismissed without prejudice for failure to obtain permission from the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, the civil case is dismissed without prejudice, and the Clerk is directed to enter judgment, close the civil case, and terminate the criminal motions.
DONE AND ORDERED.
