ORDER AMENDING OPINION AND DENYING PETITION FOR REHEARING AND PETITION FOR REHEARING EN BANC
The opinion filed on November 1, 1999 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Delete the third full paragraph at 197 F.3d at 383 (beginning "The district court did not abuse . . ."), including footnote 1, and substitute the following paragraph and new footnote 1:
Beardslee contends that he was entitled to cross-examine Pierce about his probationary status under the rule of Davis v. Alaska,
415 U.S. 308 (1974).
Even if we assume, without deciding, that the district court erred in precluding cross-examination of Pierce on that subject, any such error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. See Delaware v. Van Arsdall,
475 U.S. 673, 682-83 (1986) (Davis error in violation of confrontation clause is subject to harmless error analysis).
2. Delete the last paragraph at 197 F.3d at 383 (beginning "Accordingly, the district court . . ."), and substitute the following:
Accordingly, the error, if any, of the district court in precluding cross-examination regarding Pierce's probationary status was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. See Chapman v. California,
386 U.S. 18, 24 (1967).
With the Opinion so amended, the panel, as constituted above, has voted unanimously to deny the petition for rehearing. Judge Silverman has voted to deny the petition for rehearing en banc, and Judges Choy and Canby have recommended the same.
The full court has been advised of the petition for rehearing en banc, and no judge of the court has requested a vote on the petition for rehearing en banc. Fed.R.App.P. 35.
The petition for rehearing and the petition for rehearing en banc are hereby DENIED.
