PACIFIC MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT, v. FIRST REPUBLICBANK CORPORATION, ET AL., DEFENDANTS-APPELLEES.

PER CURIAM:

We reversed the judgment of the district court with opinion at 997 F.2d 39 (5th Cir. 1993), and the Supreme Court affirmed by an equally divided vote. Our mandate has not been issued to the district court. The Supreme Court has now held § 27A(b) to be an unconstitutional breach of separation of powers. Plaut v. Spendthrift Farm, Inc., ___ U.S. ___, 115 S.Ct. 1447, 131 L.Ed.2d 328 (1995). Under that decision the claims of plaintiff are barred, and the district court would be unable to do more than repeat its prior judgment. Therefore, our opinion and judgment are vacated, and the judgment of the district court is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
