ORDER GRANTING 28 U.S.C. § 2255 PETITION TO VACATE SENTENCE AND FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Stanley A. Bastían, United States District Judge ' -• On December 9, 2015, the Court held a hearing on Petitioner’s 28 U.S.C. § 2255 Petition to Vacate Sentence and for Immediate Release. ECF No. 138. The Government was represented by Ian Garriques, the defendant was represented by Meredith B. Esser and Alison K. Guernsey; Petitioner was not present. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 43.
In 2003, Petitioner was convicted, on one count of Felon in Possession of Firearm, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and one count of False Statement in Acquisition of Firearm, § 922(a)(6). Each of those crimes normally carries a statutory maximum sentence of ten. years imprisonment. Petitioner had previous convictions for Second Degree Burglary in Washington which were determined to be qualifying offenses under the Armed Career Criminal Act. (“ACCA”), 18 U.S.C. §.924(e)(2)(B). Under the ACCA sentencing enhancement, Petitioner was sentenced to the mandatory minimum of fifteen years imprisonment..
. Petitioner brings this successive petition for habeas corpus alleging that — in light of Johnson v. United States, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 2551, 192 L.Ed.2d 569 (2015)—he is actually innocent of . the ACCA enhancement and has served a sentence in-excess of the ten-year maximum sentence that would have been applicable absent the enhancement. For purposes of this Petition, the Government concedes the Petition is properly before the court procedurally.
Analysis
Under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, a prisoner in custody pursuant tó a judgment and sentence imposed by a federal court, who claims the right' to be released because his sentence was imposed in .violation of the Constitution of laws of the United States, or that the sentence was in excess of the maximum authorized by law, may move the court that imposed the sentence to vacate, set aside, or correct the sentence.
To determine whether the ACCA enhancement applies to Petitioner in light of the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Johnson — yvhich held a -portion of the ACCA was unconstitutional — the Court must determine if Petitioner’s previous convictions for Second Degree Burglary constitute “violent. felon[ies].” The Court begins with the “categorical approach” where it must compare the elements of the Second Degree Burglary statute to the “generic crime” of burglary. Descamps v. United States, — U.S. -, 133 S.Ct. *12292276, 2281, 186 L.Ed.2d 438 (2013). The prior conviction qualifies as an ACCA predicate only if the statute’s elements are the same as, or narrower than, the elements of the generic offense. Id. In other words, if any conduct that could be prohibited by the state statute would always also be prohibited by the generic offense, then the state statute is a categorical match. If conduct could'be illegal under the state statute but not covered by the generic offense, there is no categorical match.
If the prior convictions are not a categorical match, the Court must determine if the state statute is divisible or indivisible. If the statute is divisible, the Court applies the “modified categorical approach.” Id, at 2281-82'. The modified categorical approach allows the sentencing court to consult a limited set of documents — such as jury instructions and indictments — to determine whieh portion of the divisible statute the defendant was actually convicted ünder. Id.
Here, the Washington state second degree burglary statute is at issue. The former RCW 9A.52.030(1), stated: “[a] person is guilty of burglary in the second degree if, with intent to commit a crime against a person or property therein, he enters or remains unlawfully in a building other than a vehicle.” State v. Deitchler, 75 Wash.App. 134, 136, 876 P.2d 970 (quoting former RCW 9A.52.030(1)). The relevant definitions statute provides:
“Building,” in addition to its ordinary meaning, includes any dwelling, fenced area, .vehicle, railway, car, cargo container, or any other structure used for lodging of persons or for carrying of business therein, or for the use, sale, or deposit of goods; each unit of a building consisting of two or more units separately secured or occupied is a separate building.”
RCW 9A.04.110. Generic burglary, or the federal definition of burglary, includes “unlawful or unprivileged entry into, or remaining in, a building or structure, with intent to commit a crime.” Descamps, 133 S.Ct. at 2283.
Both the Petitioner and the United States concur that Washington’s second degree burglary statute, as it was when Petitioner was convicted, is not a categorical match with generic burglary — the Court agrees. The state burglary statute is not a categorical match because it encompasses physical areas that are not covered under generic burglary. For instance, the state statute covers “fenced area[s] ... railway car[s], [and] cargo containers,” whereas the generic definition does not include those types of spaces. United States v. Wenner, 351 F.3d 969, 972-73 (9th Cir.2003); see also Taylor v. United States, 495 U.S. 575, 110 S.Ct. 2143, 109 L.Ed.2d 607 (1990).
Next, the Court must determine if the Washington statute is divisible, and, if so, apply the modified categorical approach to determine- whether Petitioner’s prior convictions constitute predicates- for the ACCA enhancement. See Descamps, 133 S.Ct. at 2276, 2281-82. A statute is divisible when it contains alternative 'elements. Id. at 2285. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit recently expounded upon the test to determine whether a statute is divisible in Rendon v. Holder, 764 F.3d 1077 (9th Cir.2014). In Rendon, the Court of Appeals explained “while indivisible statutes may contain multiple, -alternative means of committing the crime, only divisible statutes contain multiple alternative elements of functionally separate- crimes.” Id. at 1085. A statute that refers to multiple alternative means of commission is still indivisible if the jurors need not agree-on which method .of committing the offense the defendant performed. Id. In other *1230words, if a statute prohibited “taking or keeping” an item, the statute would be divisible if all jurors had to agree on the issue of whether the defendant took the item or whether he kept the item. By-contrast, the same statute would be indivisible if a jury could convict a defendant so long as each juror agreed the defendant did one or the other — that is, if nine jurors believed the defendant took the item, while the remaining three jurors believed the defendant kept the item. The Court of Appeals recently reiterated this distinction in United States v. Dixon, 805 F.3d 1193 (9th Cir.2015).
Here — as noted above — the portion of the state statute that exceeds the generic definition of burglary is what constitutes a building. Thus, the Court must analyze whether the alternative state definitions of building are means of committing the crime or alternative elements of a crime. At first blush, the statute appears to be indivisible, containing alternative means of committing the crime, because the over-broad portions of state law is contained in a separate definitional statute rather than contained within the burglary statute itself. See RCW 9A.04.110; former RCW 9A.52.030(1). Indeed, in Washington, “[d]efinition statutes do not create additional alternative means of committing an offense.” State v. Linehan, 147 Wash.2d 638, 646, 56 P.3d 542 (2002) (internal citations omitted). Similarly, the Washington Pattern Jury Instructions do not require- a jury to agree on what type of building was entered or unlawfully remained in. 11A Wash. Prac., Pattern- Jury Instr. Crim. WPIC 60.04 (3d Ed). Therefore, the Washington statute contains alternative means rather than alternative elements.
The United States cites United States v. Brooks to argue the Washington statute is divisible. 532 Fed.Appx. 670, 671 (9th Cir.2013). This argument is uncompelling for three reasons. First, although Brooks was decided after Descamps, it did not properly apply Descamps. Brooks was decided just five days after the Supreme Court’s Descamps decision. Though the Court of Appeals cited - Descamps and applied the modified categorical approach, the Court neglected to analyze the divisibility of the statute at all.- Second, Brooks was decided before the Court of Appeals clearly elucidated the divisibility test in Rendon' and Dixon. Because the'test had not been so clearly announced at the time of the Brooks decision, it is unclear if the Court of Appeals would still apply the modified categorical approach to the statute today. Last, Brooks was an unpublished decision. Under Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3, the case is not precedent and should not be cited to any court in the circuit with few exceptions not applicable here.
Applying Rendon and Dixon, it is clear the Washington Second Degree Burglary statute, former RCW 9A.52.030(1), is indivisible and the modified categorical approach cannot be applied. Because the state statute is not a categorical match to the generic crime of burglary and because the statute is indivisible, the state crime cannot be considered a predicate “violent felony”' under the enumerated clause of the ACCA.’ Post-Johnson, the Washington burglary statute cannot be an AOCA-pred-icate under the so-called residual clause of the ACCA either. See Johnson, 135 S.Ct. at 2557 (holding the residual clause violates' the Due Process Clause). Accordingly, Petitioner is actually innocent of the ACCA enhancement under which he was sentenced. He is therefore entitled to be resentenced on his underlying convictions for Felon in Possession of a Firearm and False Statement in- Acquisition of Firearm absent the ACCA enhancement. Petitioner’s 18 U.S.C. § 2255 Petition to Vacate *1231Sentence and for Immediate Release, ECF No. 138, is GRANTED.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1. Petitioner’s 18 U.S.C. § 2255 Petition to Vacate Sentence and for Immediate Release, ECF No. 138, is GRANTED.
2. Petitioner’s sentence imposed pursuant to the Armed Career Criminal Act, ECF No. 74, is VACATED.
3. Petitioner Paul Hines shall be released without delay from the Bureau of Prisons and shall not serve the remainder of the sentence imposed.
4. Petitioner will be resentenced on the underlying convictions on March 23, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. in Yakima, Washington. Petitioner must be present at that hearing.
5. The United States Probation Office shall prepare a timely amended pre-sentence investigation report which will reflect Petitioner’s actual innocence under the ACCA, and comply with the following schedule:
(a)Not less than 35 days prior to the date set for sentencing, the Probation Officer shall disclose the presentence investigation report to counsel for Defendant and the Government. Within 14 days thereafter, counsel shall communicate in writing to the probation office any objections they may have as to any factual errors or omissions; sentencing classifications; sentencing guideline ranges; and policy statements contained in or omitted from the report. Such communication may be oral initially, but shall immediately be confirmed in writing to the Probation Officer and opposing counsel.
Objections shall be numbered and identify the paragraph(s) to which the objection applies. Objections shall address the PSR in sequential order, beginning with the lowest numbered paragraph.
(b) After receiving counsel’s objections, the Probation Officer shall conduct any further investigation and make any revisions to the presentence report that may be necessary. The Probation Officer may require counsel for both parties to meet with the officer to discuss unresolved factual and legal issues and counsel shall make themselves available for that purpose.
(c) At least 10 days prior to the date of the sentencing hearing, the Probation Officer shall submit the presentence report to the sentencing judge. The report shall be accompanied by an addendum setting forth any objections counsel may have made, including those that have not been resolved, together with the officer’s comments and recommendations thereon. The Probation Officer shall certify that the contents of the report, other than sentencing recommendations, including any revisions or addenda, have been disclosed to counsel for the Defendant and the Government, and that the addendum fairly states any remaining objections.
(d) Except with regard to any written objection made under sub division (a), the report of the presentence investigation and computations shall be accepted by the Court as accurate. Upon a timely objection by the Defendant, the Government bears the burden of proof on any fact that is necessary to establish the base offense level. The Court, however, for good cause shown, may allow a new objection to be raised at any time before the imposition of sentence. In resolving disputed issues of fact, the Court may consider any reliable information pre*1232sented by the Probation Officer, the Defendant, or the Government.

(g) Any memorandum or motion regarding sentencing must be filed and served at least 15 days prior to the date set for sentencing.,The opposing party shall file and serve a response, if any, within 7 days of receipt of the motion.
•(h) If it is determined, that the Defendant may qualify for the safety valve (5C1.2), the parties must schedule a meeting to conduct a safety valve interview to determine if the Defendant has met the requirements of, U.S.S.G. § 501.2(a)(5) no later than 10 days pri- or to the sentencing hearing. Counsel may request a continuance of the sentencing hearing if the ends of justice so require.
6. The United States Probation' Office shall assign a Pretrial Services Officer to supervise Petitioner pending resentencing. The Office shall inform defense counsel of the officer assigned immediately.
7. Petitioner will be subject to the following pre-sentencing conditions of release:
