ON PETITION FOR REHEARING AND SUGGESTION OF REHEARING EN BANC.

The Petition for Rehearing and Suggestion for Rehearing En Banc is pending before this court.

On December 28, 2001, the court or- • dered that this Petition for Rehearing and Suggestion for Rehearing En Banc be suspended pending the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Larry Hope v. Mark Pelzer, 240 F.3d 975 (11th Cir. 2001), then on petition for certiorari.

In each of these cases, the panel’s judgment would have affirmed the judgment of the district court upon the binding precedent of Hope v. Pelzer.

The Supreme Court has now decided Hope v. Pelzer with a full opinion, reversing the judgment of the Circuit Court of Appeals.

We find that the decision of the Supreme Court controls the issue in each of these cases to the end that the judgment in each case by the district court, dismissing defendants upon a finding that they are entitled to qualified immunity, is erroneous.

*1331 Therefore, the panel grants the petition for rehearing and, upon the authority of Hope v. Pelzer, 534 U.S. 1120, 122 S.Ct. 933, 151 L.Ed.2d 961 (2002), the judgment of the district court is REVERSED. Each case is REMANDED.
