                               (Opinion filed June 14, 2007)

                           ORDER AMENDING OPINION

AMBRO, Circuit Judge

        It is now ordered that the not precedential dissenting Opinion in the above case
filed June 14, 2007, be amended as follows:

         On page 23 of the opinion, in Judge Ambro’s dissent, footnote 13 is amended such
that it reads in its entirety: “As explained earlier, see supra at 17–18, the majority avoids
addressing the issue by erroneously concluding that the District Court did not base its
decision on this ground, see Maj. Op. at 11.”

       On page 28 of the opinion, in Judge Ambro’s dissent, in the second sentence of
the Part entitled “III. Conclusion”, the second sentence, beginning with “It was
admissible . . .” is amended by inserting a semicolon (“;”) after the word “requested”.

       On pages 28 and 29 of the opinion, in Judge Ambro’s dissent, the carry-over
sentence beginning “Perhaps most notable . . .” is replaced in its entirety with the
following: “Perhaps most notable, though, is that the Assistant U.S. Attorney trying this
case objected to Hugh’s motion to reopen at all.”

       On page 29, in Judge Ambro’s dissent, in the first full sentence beginning with “It
is inconceivable . . .”, the word “that” is replaced with the word “how”.

       On page 29, in Judge Ambro’s dissent, in the second sentence of the final
paragraph, the word “the” is replaced with the word “this” in the concluding phrase “the
decision not to reopen qualifies.”, such that the phrase reads “this decision not to reopen
qualifies.”

                                           By the Court,

                                           /s/ Thomas L. Ambro
                                               Circuit Judge
Dated: July 18, 2007
