This Act amends clause (i) of section 1930(a)(6)(B) of title 28, United States Code, replacing 5-year with 10-year. Section 1930 is not indexed here, so nothing recorded says what the period runs from or governs.

“Section 1930(a)(6)(B) of title 28, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in clause (i), by striking ``5-year'' and inserting ``10-year''; and”
That sentence, in plain words

What this is about
The span sits in an older law. Only the length is changed here. This law does not print what the span is for.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
