United States Seventh Circuit

Petition for rehearing is granted and a new trial is ordered where a recent Supreme Court decision, Unitherm Food Systems, Inc. v. Swift-Eckrich, Inc., 543 U.S. 1186 (2005), does not preclude the court from granting relief because of an error in admitting testimony despite the fact that appellant did not file the proper post-judgment motions.
