FAY, Circuit Judge, joined by HENDERSON and THOMAS A. CLARK, Circuit Judges,
concurring in part and dissenting in
part:
Most respectfully, I join in those portions of Judge Hatchett’s opinion which reverse the trial court and dissent from those portions which affirm the trial court. As author of the panel opinion, 636 F.2d 132, I tried to present a full analysis of both the legislative history and judicial precedent surrounding the issues presented. Nothing submitted during the en banc consideration of this case has altered my views expressed at that time. It is most appropriate that the case will now proceed to a full development of the facts leading up to and surrounding the release of Thomas Warren Whisenhant.
