Acinetobacter baumannii resistance to carbapenems is of global concern. Here, we report the 3.9 Mb draft genome of a cerebrospinal fluid isolate of A. baumannii strain 10441_14 which is carbapenem resistant and belongs to ST451. This genome will further help in the understanding of the drug resistance mechanism, epidemiology, and pathology of this bacterium.
