## Opinion text

ALVIN B. RUBIN, Circuit Judge, with whom BROWN, JOHNSON, and JERRE S. WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, join,
dissenting:
“The established rule,” we said in Woods Exploration & Producing Co., Inc. v. Aluminum Company of America, (Alcoa), 1 “is that computation of interest be made from the date judgment should properly have been entered for the plaintiffs.” The majority opinion correctly quotes this in footnote 10. Despite the reasons given by the majority, I would not overrule that decision. I, therefore, respectfully dissent.
. 509 F.2d 784 , 789 (5th Cir). cert. denied, 423 U.S. 823 (1975).
