NOONAN, Circuit Judge:
Lynn Boyd Stites appeals his conviction of violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c) (RICO) and of twelve violations of 18 U.S.C. § 1341 (mail fraud). His principal issues on appeal are challenges to the disqualification of two lawyers he wanted to represent him. Holding that the district court properly disqualified the lawyers, we affirm his conviction. On one aspect of his sentencing, we remand for resentencing.
