   ON PETITION FOR REHEARING AND SUGGESTION FOR REHEARING EN BANC

(Opinion October 10, 1986, 5th Cir.1986, 801 F.2d 1463)

PER CURIAM:

The sentence of the court’s opinion reading “Such a claim could provide an appropriate means of examining claims of this sort” [see the last sentence of the paragraph appearing after headnote call [8] at 801 F.2d 1474] is deleted and the following sentence is substituted:

This is not to say that a defendant’s payment of fees to his counsel will always immunize such fees from post-trial forfeiture, only that a defense lawyer’s knowledge of the charges against the client does not ipso facto disqualify the attorney’s claim to be a bona fide purchaser under the RICO and CCE forfeiture provisions.

Except as noted herein, the Petition for Rehearing is denied. No member of this panel nor judge in regular active service on the Court having requested that the Court be polled on rehearing en banc, (Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and Local Rule 35) the Suggestion for Rehearing En Banc is DENIED.

ENTERED FOR THE COURT:

/s/ Charles Clark Chief Judge
