This Act strikes 5 years and inserts 10 years throughout section 4 of the Bankruptcy Administration Improvement Act of 2020, printed as a note to section 152 of title 28, United States Code.

An older law from 2020 is changed. A term of five years is struck. Ten years goes in instead.
That older law set up judge posts meant to be temporary. This law does not print what it said. It only makes the same swap in each of fourteen spots.
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.
