                                      ORDER

       Respondent’s petition for panel rehearing filed on August 28, 2020, pointed out a
factual error in the panel’s opinion of July 16, 2020. Upon consideration of the petition
and the answer, the petition for rehearing is GRANTED to the extent that the panel is
issuing an amended opinion that corrects the error and addresses in more detail the
respondent’s arguments concerning its affirmative defense. The amended portions of
the opinion appear on pages 3, 17–22 of the amended slip opinion. In all other respects,
the petition for panel rehearing is DENIED. The mandate shall issue immediately, but
petitioner Delgado’s petition for attorney fees remains under consideration. The
amended opinion is attached.

        * Then-Circuit Judge Barrett was a member of the original panel but did not participate in
consideration of the petition for panel rehearing, which is being decided by a quorum of the panel under
28 U.S.C. § 46(d).
