(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 774; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(L), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2147.)
Notes
Historical and Revision NotesBased on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., § 494 (Mar. 4, 1909, ch. 321, § 303, 35 Stat. 1147). Reference to persons procuring or aiding was omitted as unnecessary in view of definition of “principal” in section 2 of this title. Mandatory punishment provisions were rephrased in the alternative. The last sentence relating to venue was omitted as unnecessary in view of the general provision to the same effect in section 3238 of this title. Minor changes were made in phraseology and arrangement.
Editorial Notes
Amendments1994—Pub. L. 103–322 substituted “fined under this title” for “fined not more than $10,000” in last par.
