FISHER, Circuit Judge,
with whom B. FLETCHER, WARDLAW, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges, join, concurring:
I fully concur in the majority opinion. I also conclude, contrary to the dissent, that even if it were reasonable to apply the more stringent standard of Davis v. United States, 512 U.S. 452, 114 S.Ct. 2350, 129 L.Ed.2d 362 (1994), the California Court of Appeal unreasonably applied that standard. For the reasons stated in the majority opinion, the only reasonable conclusion was that Sessoms’ statements, taken together, unambiguously conveyed his desire to have counsel present.
