Historical and Revision Notes RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 3030346 App.:762(a).Mar. 30, 1920, ch. 111, § 2(a), 41 Stat. 537; Pub. L. 106–181, title IV, § 404(b)(1), Apr. 5, 2000, 114 Stat. 131. The words “and just” are omitted as redundant to “fair”. The words “each has sustained” are substituted for “they may severally have suffered by reason of the death of the person by whose representative the suit is brought” to eliminate unnecessary words.
