CITY OF GARLAND; ROBERT BEASLEY; CHARLES M HINTON, JR; RON JONES, II; M SHANNON KACKLEY; MONTRICE SESSION; DEBBIE FREY Defendants-Appellees.  Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas July 11, 2000 ON PETITION FOR REHEARING Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Appellant’s motion for leave to file petition for rehearing out of time is GRANTED. In response to petitioner’s allegation of factual error, the third sentence of the paragraph beginning on page three of our opinion is modified to read, “Ellis appealed his Garland convictions to the County Court of Criminal Appeals of Dallas County, which affirmed his conviction. The Court of Appeals, Fifth District of Texas at Dallas dismissed his subsequent appeal as untimely.” Additionally, footnote 4 is amended to read, “Ellis claims that Judge Beasley is not entitled to judicial immunity because he was not properly certified as a judge under Texas law. The County Court of Criminal Appeals of Dallas County affirmed Judge Beasley’s ruling, implicitly recognizing it as that of a valid court. The Court of Appeals, Fifth District of Texas at Dallas dismissed Ellis’s appeal as untimely, also implicitly finding that Judge Beasley had the authority to issue the ruling. Without any evidence from Ellis that this basic assumption was incorrect, we will not disturb that finding here.” With these modifications, the petition for rehearing filed in the above case is DENIED. IT IS ORDERED. ENTERED FOR THE COURT: ___________________________________ United States Circuit Judge
