This part raises the pay for the person who runs a chapter 7 case. It goes from forty five dollars to a hundred and five. It then sets out where the rest of the filing fee goes. Three pots of money are named, each with a set amount.

What the document says
“Section 330 of title 11, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in subsection (b)(1) by striking ``$45'' and inserting ``$105''; and”
The operative pay change. This Act amends section 330 of title 11, United States Code, replacing the figure $45 in subsection (b)(1) with $105. Section 2 of this Act states that the effect is to bring total trustee pay to $120 a case.
What the document actually says
“Section 330 of title 11, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in subsection (b)(1) by striking ``$45'' and inserting ``$105''; and”
That sentence, in plain words
One rule pays the case worker forty five dollars. This law changes that number. It becomes a hundred and five.
What this is about
That rule sits in an older law. The number is the only thing changed. Part six says when the change starts.

What the document says
“by striking subsection (e).”
The second change to section 330 of title 11, United States Code. This Act strikes subsection (e) of that section. The Act does not set out what the struck subsection said, and section 330 is not indexed here.
What the document actually says
“by striking subsection (e).”
That sentence, in plain words
This law takes a part out of an older law. The part is subsection (e).
What this is about
The law does not print what that part said. So this record does not say either. Only the fact of the removal is set down here.

A free standing rule, not an amendment. Once the trustee has been paid under section 330(b)(1) of title 11, United States Code, what is left of the fee collected under section 1930(a)(1)(A) of title 28 is to be deposited in the three amounts set out below, and this rule overrides any other law.

That sentence, in plain words
The case worker is paid first. What is left of the fee is split up. This rule beats any other rule.

What the document says
“$63.51 in the special fund of the Treasury established under section 1931 of title 28, United States Code.”
The first of the three deposits. $63.51 of what is left goes to the special Treasury fund established under section 1931 of title 28, United States Code. That section is not indexed here, so nothing recorded says what the fund pays for.
What the document actually says
“$63.51 in the special fund of the Treasury established under section 1931 of title 28, United States Code.”
That sentence, in plain words
The first pot gets sixty three dollars and fifty one cents.
What this is about
That pot was set up by an older law. This law does not say what it pays for. It only sets the amount.

What the document says
“$51.49 in the United States Trustee System Fund established under section 589a of title 28, United States Code.”
The third of the three deposits. $51.49 goes to the United States Trustee System Fund, established under section 589a of title 28, United States Code. The same figure appears in the amendment below, which writes it into section 589a(b)(1)(A) itself.
What the document actually says
“$51.49 in the United States Trustee System Fund established under section 589a of title 28, United States Code.”
That sentence, in plain words
The third pot gets fifty one dollars and forty nine cents.

What the document says
“Section 589a of title 28, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in subsection (b)(1)(A), by striking ``40.46 percent of the fees collected'' and inserting ``$51.49 of the fees collected in each case''; and”
This Act amends section 589a of title 28, United States Code, so that the United States Trustee System Fund takes a fixed $51.49 from the fees collected in each case rather than 40.46 percent of the fees collected. Section 589a is not indexed here, so nothing recorded says which fees the subsection reaches.
What the document actually says
“Section 589a of title 28, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in subsection (b)(1)(A), by striking ``40.46 percent of the fees collected'' and inserting ``$51.49 of the fees collected in each case''; and”
That sentence, in plain words
The fund used to get a share of the fees. The share was just over forty percent. Now it gets a set amount in each case.
What this is about
A share goes up and down with the fee. A set amount does not. The set amount is fifty one dollars and forty nine cents.

What the document says
“in subsection (f)(1)-- (A) in subparagraph (D) by striking ``Fourth'' and inserting ``Second''; (B) by striking subparagraphs (B) and (C); and (C) by redesignating subparagraph (D) as subparagraph (B).”
The second change to section 589a of title 28, United States Code. This Act renames the ordinal in subparagraph (D) from Fourth to Second, strikes subparagraphs (B) and (C), and moves what was subparagraph (D) up to be subparagraph (B). The Act does not set out what any of those subparagraphs said, and section 589a is not indexed here.
What the document actually says
“in subsection (f)(1)-- (A) in subparagraph (D) by striking ``Fourth'' and inserting ``Second''; (B) by striking subparagraphs (B) and (C); and (C) by redesignating subparagraph (D) as subparagraph (B).”
That sentence, in plain words
One item on a list is renamed. It was fourth. Now it is second. Two items above it are taken out.
What this is about
The list says where money goes and in what order. This law does not print what the items said. Only the changes are set down here.
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.
Each distinct thing the section does: the rise in the trustee payment under section 330(b)(1) of title 11, the striking of section 330(e), the three fixed deposits out of the remainder of the chapter 7 filing fee, the change from a percentage to a fixed per case amount in section 589a(b)(1)(A) of title 28, and the restructuring of the priority list in section 589a(f)(1).
The redesignation of subparagraph (D) as subparagraph (B) in section 589a(f)(1) is recorded with the strikes it accompanies rather than as a change of its own.
The section works almost entirely by amending older law. Sections 330 of title 11 and 589a, 1930 and 1931 of title 28, United States Code, and section 10101(b) of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, are not indexed here. So nothing recorded says what those provisions said before this Act or say after it. A reader following a citation into them will find the older wording until this Act is applied. Section 330(e) of title 11 is struck without its text being set out, so this Act does not say what it contained.
