CALLAHAN, Circuit Judge,
dissenting:
I agree that the decision whether to vacate our en banc opinion is addressed to our discretion, but I would exercise that discretion to grant the motion. I have serious questions concerning the merits and practical consequences of the majority’s broad reading of Martinez v. Ryan, — U.S. —, 132 S.Ct. 1309, 182 L.Ed.2d 272 (2012), and believe that the Supreme Court would have provided necessary guidance. The en banc court divided on the Martinez issue and on another major issue, each of which might have received Supreme Court attention, neither of which will now.
