(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 482, § 7678; renumbered § 8878, Pub. L. 115232, div. A, title VIII, § 807(d)(9), Aug. 13, 2018, 132 Stat. 1837.)

Notes

Historical and Revision Notes Revised sectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 767834 U.S.C. 1167.Mar. 4, 1909, ch. 321, § 38, 35 Stat. 1096. The words “captor or” between “any” and “claimant” are omitted because the Act of March 3, 1899, ch. 413, § 13, 30 Stat. 1007, repealed all laws authorizing the distribution of prize proceeds to captors. These words were apparently carried over inadvertently to § 38 of the 1909 Act from the source of that section, namely R.S. 5441. The section is worded in the style of Title 18, U.S. Code.
