Judge Tidwell, III

Before PLAGER, Circuit Judge, COWEN and NIES, Senior Circuit Judges.^_

_ Senior Circuit Judge Nies participated in this order but died on August 7, 1996, before the order was filed.

ORDER

The parties' petitions for rehearing by the panel on the grounds that the court failed to consider certain factors are denied as lacking merit. However, the opinion, issued June 5, 1996, does not specifically state that a separate judgment had been entered on the unappealed claims, one point raised in the petitions. For clarification, note 1 on page 2 of the slip opinion is amplified to read:

1 Kraft had also made claims to certain investment tax credits on television films. A separate judgment was entered denying these claims on January 31, 1994. That judgment was vacated and reentered as part of the March judgment sought to be appealed. Kraft has not pursued these claims, and we need not refer to them further herein as the part of the March judgment dealing with these claims is not challenged.

So ORDERED.
