The opinion

WEIS, Circuit Judge,

Statement Sur Petition for Rehearing:

Although I continue to believe that Mr. Mollica was entitled to use immunity had he chosen to testify, his willingness to forego that protection has brought about a significant change in the posture of this case. In view of the present circumstances, I vote for rehearing.
