ON PETITION FOR REHEARING

Treating the Petition for Rehearing En Banc as a Petition for Panel Rehearing, the Petition for Panel Rehearing is GRANTED.

In supplemental briefing filed by the parties after our previous opinion on rehearing, it has come to our attention that the state courts are now moving forward with Hansen’s state habeas application. In the light of that activity, we cannot say that there is an absence of available State corrective process or that circumstances exist that render such process ineffective *329 to protect Hansen’s rights. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1)(B). We therefore withdraw our previous opinions in this case and AFFIRM the judgment of the district court dismissing Hansen’s federal habeas petition without prejudice for failure to exhaust state remedies.
