What the document says
“Section 1003(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Judgeship Act of 2017 (28 U.S.C. 152 note) is amended by striking ``5 years'' and inserting ``10 years''.”
The same change in a second older law. This Act strikes 5 years and inserts 10 years in section 1003(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Judgeship Act of 2017, printed as a note to section 152 of title 28, United States Code. That Act is not indexed here.
What the document actually says
“Section 1003(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Judgeship Act of 2017 (28 U.S.C. 152 note) is amended by striking ``5 years'' and inserting ``10 years''.”
That sentence, in plain words
A second older law is changed the same way. Five years becomes ten years.
What this is about
This one is from 2017. Only one spot in it is changed. The words that go in are the same.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
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.
