28 U.S.C. § 2322 (2022) |
§2322. United States as party |
All actions specified in section 2321 of this title shall be brought by or against the United States. |
(June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 969.) |
HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §48 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, §211, 36 Stat. 1150; Oct. 22, 1913, ch. 32, 38 Stat. 219). Word "actions" was substituted for "cases and proceedings", in view of Rule 2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. A provision authorizing intervention by the United States was omitted. The United States, under the provisions of this section, is a necessary and indispensable original party, and hence intervention is unnecessary. (See Lambert Run Coal Co. v. Baltimore & O. R. Co., 1922, 42 S.Ct. 349, 258 U.S. 377, 66 L.Ed. 671.) |
