MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

FLANNERY, District Judge.

This case involves alleged overpricing in the sale of crude oil, for which the United States seeks to recover 183 million dollars. It began as an administrative proceeding, and might have continued in that forum had the defendant not filed an action for declaratory relief in the Northern District of Texas to resolve certain "purely legal issues."
