                ORDER AMENDING OPINION

  The slip opinion in the above case filed May 9, 2003, is
amended as follows:
1.    On page 4, second full paragraph, line 20, change “(___
      ed. ___)” to “(2d ed. Supp. 2003)”.
2.    On page 5, first full paragraph, delete the following:
      “Those cases, however, involve situations where the
      petitioner sought relief from convictions in federal
      courts. Here, a state prisoner seeks relief from a state
      court conviction.” In place of these deleted sentences,
      insert the following: “We agree with those cases.”

* Judge Becker completed his term as Chief Judge on May 4, 2003.
