(1,1.D. AIa. April 13, 1984) wherein the court termed my rePre-

sentation "highly effective and competent. " Memorandum

opinion and order at 4, filed June 29,1984. I had a sub-

I0. I*Iy hourly rate is $160.00 per hour. Attached as

Appendix B to this affidavit is a scnedule ot the hours

which I have spent on tnls case rrom my lntEIaI lnvolvement

in 1981 through July L7, 1984. These hours were compiled

from contemporaneous time records which I have maintained

throughout this period.

11. In addition to the hours listed in Appendix B,

other attorneys employed by the Legal Defense Fund, or cooP-

erating with the Fund, have reviewed documents filed in this

case and have conferred with me from time to time concerning

this case. These attorneys include Director-Counsel Jack

Greenberg, First Assistant Counsel Lowell Johnston and

Charles Stephen Ralston, and Assistant Counsel Napoleon B.

williams. In addition, Janice McCaughan, a law student em-

ployed at the Legal Defense Fund from May 1984 through

August 1984 worked a total of 80.5 hours devoted to

assisting counsel in the preparation of plaintiffs' post-

trial memoranda of law and preparation for oral argument.

In order to provide a conservative statement of the time

spent on this case and to eliminate any hours which might

conceivably constitute a duplication of effort, the Legal

Defense Fund is not requesting fees for the services of

attorneys Jack Greenberg, Johnson, Ralston or wiIIiams.

L2. Attached as Appendix C is the Statement of Time of

Janice McCaughan.
