Text

Notice of suit under section 1494 of this title shall be given to the Attorney General, to the Comptroller General, and to the head of the department requested to settle the account in question. The judgment of the United States Court of Federal Claims in such suit shall be conclusive upon the parties, and payment of the amount found due shall discharge the obligation. The transcript of such judgment, filed in the clerks office of any district court, shall be entered upon the records, and shall be enforceable as other judgments.

(June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 977; July 28, 1953, ch. 253, § 12, 67 Stat. 227; Pub. L. 97164, title I, § 139(j), Apr. 2, 1982, 96 Stat. 43; Pub. L. 102572, title IX, § 902(a)(1), Oct. 29, 1992, 106 Stat. 4516.)

Notes

Historical and Revision NotesBased on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., § 287 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, § 180, 36 Stat. 1141; Feb. 13, 1925, ch. 229, § 3, 43 Stat. 939). Words “The Attorney General shall represent the United States at the hearing of said cause” were omitted as covered by sections 309 and 310 of title 5, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Executive Departments and Government Officers and Employees. Jurisdiction provisions of section 287 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., appear in section 1494 of this title. A provision for continuances was omitted as unnecessary, in view of the inherent power of the court to grant continuances in any suit. A provision in section 287 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., that section 274 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., should apply to cases under such section 287 was omitted as covered by section 2504 of this title. Changes were made in phraseology.
