   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  03-3200
                          and No:  03-3201
   Eastern District of Missouri   
Criminal Case - sanctions. Appeal from orders imposing sanctions against criminal defense attorneys are reversed. Rule prohibiting communication with represented client without first obtaining permission from client's existing counsel applies to attorneys involved in the matter and does not apply to an attorney not so involved. District court abused its discretion in imposing sanctions on attorney for issuing subpoena on attorney to attend hearing, as findings of bad faith and vexatiousness were not supported.
