Based on title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., § 1, and section 641 of title 48, U. S.

A part of section 641 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., is incorporated in sections 91 and 132 of this title.

Parts of sections 863 and 864 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., are retained in title 48. For other parts of those sections, see Distribution Table.

Other provisions of section 643 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., are incorporated in sections 501, 504, and 541 of this title.

SECTION 134-SECTION REVISED

Based on title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., § 1 and section 863 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., Territories and Insular Possessions (Apr. 12, 1900, ch. 191, § 34, 31 Stat. 84; Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, § 1, 36 Stat. 1087; Jan. 7, 1913, ch. 6, 37 Stat. 648; July 30, 1914, ch. 216, 38 Stat. 580; Mar. 2, 1917, ch. 145, § 41, 39 Stat. 965; Mar. 4, 1921, ch. 161, § 1, 41 Stat. 1412; Sept. 14, 1922, ch. 306, § 1, 42 Stat. 837; Mar. 26, 1938, ch. 51, § 2, 52 Stat. 118).

Section consolidates the last paragraph of section 1 of title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., with portions of section 863 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., with changes in phraseology necessary to effect consolidation.

Provisions of section 1 of title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., relating to the number of judges in the various districts are incorporated in section 133 of this title.

A portion of section 863 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., is retained in said title 48. For remainder of section 863, see Distribution Table. The exception in subsection (b) "except in the District of Columbia" conforms with the recent decision in U. S. ex rel. Laughlin v. Eicher, 1944, 56 F. Supp. 972, holding that residence requirement of section 1 of title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., did not apply to district judges in the District of Columbia. (See reviser's note under section 44 of this title.)

The clause in said last paragraph of section 1 of title 28 providing that any district judge, who violates the residence requirement, shall be deemed guilty of a high misdemeanor, was omitted. This penalty provision was attached to the residence requirement at the time of compilation of the Revised Statutes of 1878, although it is apparent that Congress only intended that the penalty should be invoked upon the unauthorized practice of law. See U. S. ex rel. Laughlin v. Eicher, supra, in which an outline of the history of said section 1 of title 28 is given.

SECTION 135-SECTION REVISED

Based on title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., § 5, and District of Columbia Code, 1940 ed., § 11-302 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, § 2, 36 Stat. 1087; Feb. 25, 1919, ch. 29, § 1, 40 Stat. 1156; Dec. 13, 1926, ch. 6, 44 Stat. 919; May 17, 1932, ch. 190, 47 Stat. 158; July 31, 1946, ch. 704, § 1, 60 Stat. 716).

Section consolidates section 5 of title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., and section 11-302 of the District of Columbia Code, 1940 ed.

"Chief judge," in the District of Columbia, was substituted for "Chief Justice" which appeared in section 11-302 of the District of Columbia Code. (See reviser's note under section 136 of this title.) Words "to be paid in monthly installments" were omitted, since the time of payment is a matter of administrative convenience. See 20 Comp. Gen. 834.

The provision of section 5 of title 28, U. S. C., 1940 ed., for salaries of judges of the district court of Alaska was omitted as covered by section 101 of title 48, U. S. C., 1940 ed., Territories and Insular Possessions, as amended by a separate section in the bill to enact this revised title.
