Before EDMONDSON, BARKETT and HULL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      On February 21, 2012, the United States Supreme Court reversed this

Court’s decision in Maples v. Allen, 586 F.3d 879 (2009), and remanded this case

to this Court for further proceedings. In turn, this Court now remands this case to

the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama for further

proceedings consistent with the opinion of the United States Supreme Court in

Maples v. Thomas, 565 U.S. __, 132 S. Ct. 912 (2012).
