Description

We have granted en banc review to resolve a conflict in our court's jurisprudence that has surfaced following the publication of United States v. Cohen, 171 F.3d 796 (3d Cir. 1999), United States v. Gaev, 24 F.3d 473 (3d Cir. 1994), and United States v. Gambino, 926 F.2d 1335 (3d Cir. 1991), on the one hand, and United States v. Thomas, 998 F.2d 1202 (3d Cir. 1993), on the other.*fn1 In the instant matter, the District Court permitted the government, pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence ("Federal Rule") 403, to introduce both the plea agreements and guilty pleas of two witnesses notwithstanding a representation by defense counsel that they would not challenge the credibility of such witnesses. The jury convicted all three defendants on a sole count of mail fraud. The panel majority reversed. We granted the government's petition for rehearing and vacated the panel decision.*fn2
