News in United States v. Arnold
I just found something on PACER I have not seen reported anywhere.

Petition for rehearing / en banc was denied a while back and cert was recently denied on Feb. 23, 2009.
I just came across this motion to depublish the opinion (which was denied without opinion on Mar. 16, 2009).
The shocking news is contained in the motion to depublish:
Two days after Arnold was informed by counsel that cert was denied, he committed suicide.
