HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., § 193 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, § 112, 36 Stat. 1128; June 15, 1937, ch. 351, 50 Stat. 260; Dec. 28, 1945, ch. 596, 59 Stat. 661).

Provisions that the counties in both divisions of the eastern district included all Indian reservations in such counties and that the counties in both divisions of the western district included all Indian reservations in such counties were omitted as surplusage. (See Revis- er’s Note under section 114 of this title.) Pend Oreille County of the northern division of the eastern district and Grays Harbor of the southern divi- sion of the western district were created since the en- actment of the Judicial Code. Changes in arrangement and phraseology were made. Editorial Notes AMENDMENTS 2024—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 118–73 inserted ‘‘Mount Vernon,’’ after ‘‘Tacoma,’’. 2007—Subsec. (b). Pub.
