Section 126 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2026 is replaced
What the document says“``Sec. 126. Notwithstanding section 106, during the period ending on the last day of the first calendar quarter of 2026, section 1930(a)(6)(B)(i) of title 28, United States Code, shall be applied as if `During the 5-year period' were struck.''.”
Subsection (a) of section 5018 amends section 126 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2026, division A of Public Law 119-37, to read as the quoted text. The new text directs that, through the last day of the first calendar quarter of 2026, section 1930(a)(6)(B)(i) of title 28 be applied as if the words During the 5-year period were struck.
What the document actually says“``Sec. 126. Notwithstanding section 106, during the period ending on the last day of the first calendar quarter of 2026, section 1930(a)(6)(B)(i) of title 28, United States Code, shall be applied as if `During the 5-year period' were struck.''.”
Until the last day of the first quarter of 2026, read a court fee rule as if five words were gone. The five words are: During the 5-year period.
A person or firm that files for bankruptcy pays court fees. One rule about those fees has a five year window in it. This part takes the window out for a short time.
