A]VIENDMENT TO PETITIONER'S MOTION
FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

peliti-oner, by and through her attorneys, hereby amends

her Motion for Summary Judgment of January 18, L984, by with-
drawing the followlng claims for judgment as a matter of law:

1. that petiti-oner was subjected to ex post
facto Ilability and

2, that petltioner was convicted on strlct
liability grounds.

It appears that substantial and material facts are in
dlspute with respect to these two claims. Petitioner with-
draws these two claims for development at an evidentiary
hearing or such further proceeding as the Court. permits.

Since, however, petitioner wilI be entitled to habeas corpus

relief if she prevalls on any of the remaining claims in her



I

Motion for Summary Judgment, Do further proceedings may be

necessary. Therefore, in the interest of judicial economy

and of expediting this Court's ability to dispose, ds a

matter of 1aw, of the remaining grounds asserted by petitioner

in her pending Motion for Summary Judgment, petitioner files

this amendment.
