U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
ELEVENTH CIRCUIT
NOV - 8 2000
No. 99-2426 THOMAS K. KAHN
CLERK
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
STEVEN LAWRENCE RILEY,
Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
(November 8, 2000)
B Y T H E C O U R T:
Before TJOFLAT, COX and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.
We sua sponte grant rehearing in this appeal. Our opinion is published
at 211 F.3d 1209 (11th Cir. 2000).
After we filed our opinion in this appeal, but before the mandate issued, the
Supreme Court decided Castillo v. United States, 120 S. Ct. 2090 (2000), which casts
doubt on the correctness of our ruling rejecting Riley’s challenge to the enhanced
penalty the district court imposed on him under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1). We
accordingly vacate the portion of our prior opinion addressing the § 924(c) sentencing
issue and direct the clerk to schedule the appeal for oral argument on that issue before
a regular oral-argument panel.
REHEARING GRANTED; OPINION VACATED IN PART; ORAL
ARGUMENT GRANTED IN PART.
