*615Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Joseph K. Newbold appeals the district court’s order accepting a magistrate judge’s recommendation and denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2012) motion. By order entered October 19, 2011, we denied a certifícate of appeal-ability and dismissed all the claims New-bold raised on appeal except his claim that his predicate convictions no longer qualified him as an armed career criminal under the Armed Career Criminal Act (“ACCA”), 18 U.S.C. § 924(e) (2006), in light of United States v. Simmons, 649 F.3d 237 (4th Cir.2011) (en banc). We granted a certificate of appealability on the sole issue of whether Newbold is entitled to habeas relief on his ACCA sentence in light of Carachuri-Rosendo v. Holder, — U.S.-, 130 S.Ct. 2577, 177 L.Ed.2d 68 (2010), as applied in Simmons. This appeal was subsequently placed in abeyance for United States v. Powell, 691 F.3d 554 (2012), on the issue of whether Carachuri-Rosendo, as applied in Simmons, is retroactively applicable to cases on collateral review.
In United States v. Powell, 691 F.3d 554, 558-60 (4th Cir.2012), this court held that Carachuri-Rosendo announced a procedural rather than a substantive rule, and therefore is not retroactively applicable to cases on collateral review. Under Powell, Carachuri-Rosendo and Simmons do not afford Newbold habeas relief. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order on this remaining claim. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
