against 	Record No. 1188-99-2
Circuit Court No. CJ97C-47
Richard Lee Hughes, 	Appellee.
Upon a Rehearing En Banc
Before Chief Judge Fitzpatrick, Judges Benton, Willis, Elder, Bray,
Annunziata, Bumgardner, Frank, Humphreys, Clements, and Agee
Katina D. Clarke for appellant.
Denis C. Englisby (Englisby, Englisby &
Vaughn, on brief), for appellee.
By published opinion dated August 1, 2000, a divided panel
of this Court reversed the judgment of the trial court, which awarded
custody of the minor children to the father. 	See Hughes v. Hughes,
33 Va. App. 160, 531 S.E.2d 654 (2000). 	We stayed the mandate of
that decision and granted a rehearing en banc.
Upon rehearing en banc, the stay of this Court's August 1,
2000 mandate is lifted, and the judgment of the trial court is
reversed for the reasons set forth in the majority panel opinion.
This order shall be published and certified to the trial
court.
