Mike:

Couple of thoughts...
Ebrake mechanism not fully releasing, or the pads are worn down to less 1/4 
depth- and the caliper cylinder is extended to the point where its binding 
on the cylinder walls.  If the Ebrake mechanism and cables are releasing 
and functioning properly, drive the brake piston completely back into the 
caliper.
