We present a search for high-mass resonances decaying into two leptons of different flavor: eμ, e τ, μτ. These resonances are predicted by several models beyond the standard model, such as the R-parity-violating MSSM. The search is based on 1 fb-1 of data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF II) in proton anti-proton collisions. Our observations are consistent with the standard model expectations. The results are interpreted to set 95% C.L. upper limits on σ x BR of $$\tilde{v}$$τ → eμ, e τ, μτ.
