TITLE 28—JUDICIARY AND JUDICIAL PROCEDURE
§ 2503
§ 139(a), Apr. 2, 1982, 96 Stat. 42; Pub. L. 102–572,
title IX, § 902(a)(1), Oct. 29, 1992, 106 Stat. 4516;
Pub. L. 108–271, § 8(b), July 7, 2004, 118 Stat. 814.)
HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §§ 250(2), 250a, and
262 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, §§ 145, 156, 36 Stat. 1136, 1139;
June 10, 1921, ch. 18, § 304, 42 Stat. 24; Aug. 30, 1935, ch.
831, § 13, 49 Stat. 1049; July 13, 1943, ch. 231, 57 Stat. 553).
Section consolidates limitation provisions of sections
250(2), 250a, and 262 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed.
Words ‘‘a person under legal disability or beyond the
seas at the time the claim accrues’’ were substituted
for ‘‘married women first accrued during marriage, of
persons under the age of twenty-one years first accrued
during minority, and of idiots, lunatics, insane persons,
and persons beyond the seas at the time the claim ac-
crued; entitled to the claim,’’. The revised language
will cover all legal disabilities actually barring suit.
For example, the particular reference to married
women is archaic, and is eliminated by use of the gen-
eral language substituted.
Words ‘‘nor shall any of the said disabilities operate
cumulatively’’ were omitted, in view of the elimination
of the reference to specific disabilities. Also, persons
under legal disability could not sue, and their suits
should not be barred until they become able to sue.
Similar sections of the U.S. Code do not contain any
such provision. (For example, see section 502 of title 28,
U.S.C., 1940 ed., incorporated in section 544 of this
title.)
The section was extended to include claims referred
by the head of an executive department in conformity
with section 2510 of this title.
