On Petition for Rehearing
PER CURIAM:
Considering that the restraint of the Johnson Act is on the Court and not the parties, so that the so-called counter claim was merely incidental to a claim for declaratory relief which ought not to have been entertained and the relief thus sought by the City would have flowed automatically from the proper framing of the judgment, F.R.Civ.P. 54(c), the cases1 now urged by the Importer to sustain the take nothing judgment entered in its favor on the City’s counterclaim do not compel an affirmance.
Denied.
RIVES, Circuit Judge, dissents.
