2 ORDER

Following disposition of this appeal on December 9, 2013, an active judge of the Court requested a poll on whether to rehear the case en banc. A poll having been conducted and there being no majority favoring en banc review, rehearing en banc is hereby DENIED.

Gerard E. Lynch, Circuit Judge, joined by Reena Raggi, Peter W. Hall, and Raymond J. Lohier, Jr., Circuit Judges, dissents by opinion from the denial of rehearing en banc.

FOR THE COURT: CATHERINE O’HAGAN WOLFE, CLERK

3 GERARD E. LYNCH, Circuit Judge, with whom Judge RAGGI, Judge HALL, and Judge

LOHIER join, dissenting from the denial of rehearing en banc:

For the reasons stated by Judge Kearse in her dissent from the panel’s decision, United

States v. Grimm, 738 F.3d 498, 504-09 (2d Cir. 2013), I believe that the majority opinion in this

case is inconsistent with United States v. Salmonese, 352 F.3d 608 (2d Cir. 2003), and that en

banc review is appropriate to settle the law of the Circuit. I therefore respectfully dissent from

the denial of rehearing en banc.
