OPINION

MOTLEY, Chief Judge.

The recently and hastily enacted Comprehensive Forfeiture Act of 1984, Pub.L. No. 98-473, Title II, has, and no doubt, will continue to result in many thorny legal issues to be considered by the courts. Two such issues are before this court. Defendants have made an application seeking the release of certain funds now subject to a restraining order which was issued pursuant to an ex parte application by the Government. Additionally, defendants seek an order declaring that attorneys’ fees are exempt from forfeiture under 18 U.S.C. section 1963.
