2/6/2024[VACATED PURSUANT TO SUPREME COURT JUDGMENT FILED 08/02/2024]--PER CURIAM JUDGMENT [2038999] filed that the order of the District Court appealed from in this cause be affirmed, for the reasons in the accompanying opinion . The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate through February 12, 2024. If, within that period, Appellant notifies the Clerk in writing that he has filed an application with the Supreme Court for a stay of the mandate pending the filing of a petition for a writ of certiorari, the Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate pending the Supreme Court’s final disposition of the application. The filing of a petition for rehearing or rehearing en banc will not result in any withholding of the mandate, although the grant of rehearing or rehearing en banc would result in a recall of the mandate if the mandate has already issued.
