Before WISDOM, RUBIN and SMITH, Circuit Judges.

ALVIN B. RUBIN, Circuit Judge:

1

We grant the appellee's motion to clarify our decision in this case, 858 F.2d 1010 (5th Cir.1988), to the following extent. The sentence that reads:

2

In Bean v. Independent American Savings Association, [838 F.2d 739 (5 Cir.1988) ] this court acknowledged that the proviso in section 1730(k)(1) is an exception to the FSLIC's otherwise exclusive jurisdiction to resolve claims against the FSLIC as receiver for a failed savings and loan association.1

3

is now modified to read:

4

In Bean v. Independent American Savings Association, this court acknowledged that the proviso in section 1730(k)(1) is an exception to the jurisdictional grant contained in that statute.

5

This court has no desire to enter a jurisdictional thicket that does not lie in the center of its path.

6

MOTION GRANTED.
