TITLE 31—MONEY AND FINANCE
§ 3713
In subsection (a), the words ‘‘civil action’’ are sub-
stituted for ‘‘proceeding in any court’’, ‘‘court pro-
ceeding’’, and ‘‘proceeding’’, and the word ‘‘fiscal’’ is
substituted for ‘‘financial’’, for consistency in the re-
vised title and with other titles of the United States
Code. The words ‘‘Except as provided in this sub-
section’’ are added for clarity. The words ‘‘or by an
agency or official of the United States’’ are omitted as
surplus. The words ‘‘the Postmaster General’’ are omit-
ted because of section 4(a) of the Postal Reorganization
Act (Pub. L. 91–375, 84 Stat. 773). The words ‘‘the Treas-
urer and Assistant Treasurers of the United States’’ are
omitted because of the source provisions restated in
section 321 of the revised title and Department of the
Treasury Order 229 of January 14, 1974 (39 F.R. 2280).
The word ‘‘official’’ is substituted for ‘‘officers’’ for
consistency in the revised title and with other titles of
the Code. The words ‘‘of the United States’’, ‘‘to the
Treasurer of the United States or other drawee’’, and
‘‘of such check, checks, warrant, or warrants’’ are
omitted as surplus. The text of 31:129(last sentence less
proviso) is omitted as unnecessary. The last sentence is
substituted for 31:129(last sentence proviso) to elimi-
nate unnecessary words.
In subsection (b), the words ‘‘at any time’’ in 31:131
are omitted as surplus. The words ‘‘the claim is discov-
ered’’ are substituted for ‘‘the United States or any
agency or official of the United States who is entitled
to bring the same shall discover that the United States
or any agency or official of the United States had such
cause of action’’ to eliminate unnecessary words. The
words ‘‘who is liable to any of the acti
