MARVIN JUNE PHILLIPS, a/k/a Jay; BEST DEAL
LIQUIDATORS, INCORPORATED,
                                         Defendants - Appellants.
                            O R D E R

     Appellants Mark David Eidelman and Michael Kazinec have filed

a petition for rehearing and a suggestion for rehearing en banc.

The government has filed a petition for rehearing, and appellant

Yitschak Ebert has filed a petition for rehearing with petition for

rehearing en banc.    The government has filed an answer to the

appellants’ petitions for rehearing and rehearing en banc, and

appellants Yitschak Ebert, John Wayne Foster, Jr., John Wayne

Foster, Sr., Marvin June Phillips, Best Deal Liquidators, Robert

William Spittel, Steven Michael Hale, and Bernard William Cruse,

III, have filed answers to the government’s petition.

     No member of this Court or the panel requested a poll on the

petitions for rehearing en banc; accordingly, the appellants’

petitions for rehearing en banc are denied.

     The panel has considered the appellants’ and the government’s

petitions for rehearing and hereby denies appellant Ebert’s and the

government’s petitions for rehearing.

     The panel denies the petition for rehearing of appellants

Eidelman and Kazinec except as to their argument concerning the

Court’s statement in footnote 14 of the opinion wherein this Court

overlooked the adoption of appellant Ebert’s venue argument by

appellants Eidelman and Kazinec.     The Court hereby amends the

judgments of May 3, 1999, to vacate the convictions of appellants
Eidelman and Kazinec for money laundering and receipt of stolen

property and to remand their cases for resentencing.

       Entered at the direction of Judge Michael with the concurrence

of Judge Niemeyer, acting as a quorum of the panel.                   Judge

Murnaghan disqualified himself from further consideration of this

case   and   did   not   participate   in    the   decision   regarding   the

petitions for rehearing and rehearing en banc.

                                  For the Court
