11th Cir. IOP 6 (FRAP 40)
Requesting a Poll on Court’s Own Motion
Any active Eleventh Circuit judge may request that
the court be polled on whether rehearing en banc should be granted whether or not a petition for
rehearing en banc has been filed by a party. This is ordinarily done by a letter from the requesting
judge to the chief judge with copies to the other active and senior judges of the court and any other
panel member. At the same time the judge shall notify the clerk to withhold the mandate, and the
clerk will enter an order withholding the mandate. The identity of the judge will not be disclosed
in the order.
