MacKINNON, Senior Circuit Judge
(concurring).
While I continue in the belief that the merits of the case, along with the fee application, were pending on October 1,1981 for reasons set forth in my dissent, I recognize that at least for the time being, the law of the case is set forth in the majority opinion and that is presently controlling. I therefore concur in Judge Bork’s statement denying appellees’ motion for rehearing and do not suggest en banc hearing since the proceeding in my opinion does not involve a question of exceptional importance within the meaning of F.R.App.P. 35(a).
