Text: 17 This court reviews specific findings of fact made by the trial court under a clearly erroneous standard. Hernandez v. New York, 500 U.S. 352, 365-66, 111 S.Ct. 1859, 1869-70, 114 L.Ed.2d 395 (1991). A finding is 'clearly erroneous' when, although there is evidence to support it, the reviewing court on the entire evidence is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed. United States v. United States Gypsum Co., 333 U.S. 364, 395, 68 S.Ct. 525, 542, 92 L.Ed. 746 (1948). The district court's legal conclusions, however, are reviewed de novo. United States v. Baro, 15 F.3d 563, 566 (6th Cir.1994).
