28 U.S.C. § 956 — Powers and duties of clerks and deputies

Page 337 TITLE 28—JUDICIARY AND JUDICIAL PROCEDURE § 956 10, 1939, ch. 2, § 1114(a), 53 Stat. 160; Oct. 21, 1942, ch. 619, title V, § 504(a)(c), 56 Stat. 957; Feb. 25, 1944, ch. 63, title V, § 503, 58 Stat. 72). This section consolidates a part of section 525, sec- tions 264 and 523 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., part of sec- tion 1114(a) of title 26, U.S.C., 1940 ed., section 11–402 of the District of Columbia Code, 1940 ed., As respects acknowledgments, sections 264, 523 and 525 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., and section 11–402 of Dis- trict of Columbia Code, 1940 ed., referred only to the Court of Claims and the District Court for the District of Columbia. However, section 555 of said title 28, before amendment in 1944, provided for the collection of a fee by district court clerks for taking acknowledgments. The 1944 amendment provided for the fixing of fees by the Judicial Conference of the United States. If nota- ries and other minor officials may take acknowledg- ments there seems to be no reason why clerks of Fed- eral courts and their deputies should not have such power. Words ‘‘Except as provided in section 591 of this title,’’ in section 525 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., were omitted. Under such section 591, the provisions of such section 525 were inapplicable to the Territory of Alas- ka, but a later act of June 6, 1900, ch. 786, § 7, 31 Stat. 324, section 106 of title 48, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Territories and Insular Possessions, provided that clerks of the District Court for Alaska should perform the duties re- quired or authorized to be performed by clerks of United States courts in other districts. Provisions of section 525 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., relating to United States commissioners are incor- porated in section 637 of this
