   ORDER

The opinion of this court in the above-captioned case issued December 5, 2002 (312 F.3d 1109), is amended as follows:

Slip Op. page 19, lines 11-23 [312 F.3d at 1109-20], change:

“There was one fact not available from an independent source — that Swan had lied to Schlie during his prior representation. It is difficult, however, to characterize Schlie’s failure to mention this fact as an adverse effect caused by his former representation »of Swan. Schlie would never have known that Swan lied to his former lawyer if he had not been that lawyer. As no other lawyer could have cross-examined Swan on that point, Schlie’s representation was no different as to that point than it would have been without the conflict.
In any event, the omission regarding Swan’s lies to Schlie had at most a negligible effect. Schlie emphasized in closing that Swan had lied to everyone else, specifically mentioning “his lawyer,” as well as Shwayder.”

“There was one fact not available from an independent source — that Swan had lied to Schlie during his prior representation. It is impossible, however, to characterize Schlie’s failure to mention this fact as an adverse effect caused by his former representation of Swan. Schlie’s communications with Swan were protected by the attorney-client privilege, so they could not have been elicited by any other lawyer either. Schlie did, nevertheless, emphasize in closing that Swan had lied to everyone else, specifically mentioning “his [other] lawyer,” as well as Shwayder.”
