Argued and Submitted February 10, 2003 — San Francisco, California.
OPINION
THOMAS, Circuit Judge.
This appeal presents the question of whether 18 U.S.C. § 3005 requires that two attorneys be appointed whenever the government indicts a defendant for a crime punishable by death, even if the death penalty is not sought. We conclude that it does not, and we affirm the judgment of the district court.
