As the Eleventh Circuit has recently reiterated, “Where there are inconsistent panel decisions, ‘the earliest panel opinion resolving the issue in question binds this circuit until the court resolves the issue en bane.’ ” Combs v. Plantation Patterns, 106 F.3d 1519, 1532 (11th Cir.1997) (quoting United States v. Dailey, 24 F.3d 1323, 1327 (11th Cir.1994)), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 118 S .Ct. 685, 139 L.Ed.2d 632 (1998). 17 Another reason that the Rubin court’s holding stands in isolation in the Eleventh Circuit may be that the Rubin court’s reliance on Reach is misplaced.
