4th Circuit Denies En Banc in McDonnell Bribery Case; Case Heading to SCOTUS

AP report. 

From the order lots of recusals:

 

Before the Court is the appellant’s petition for panel rehearing or rehearing en banc. On the petition for rehearing before the panel, no judge voted in favor of rehearing, and panel rehearing is thus denied. A poll of the Court was requested on the appellant’s suggestion for rehearing en banc. No judge voted in favor of rehearing en banc, and Judges Niemeyer, Motz, King, Duncan, Wynn, Floyd, Thacker, and Harris voted against rehearing en banc. Chief Judge Traxler and Judges Wilkinson, Gregory, Shedd, Agee, Keenan, and Diaz, deeming themselves disqualified, did not participate. Pursuant thereto, the petition for rehearing en banc is hereby also denied
