28 U.S.C. § 374 — Residence of retired judges; official station

submitted 78 years ago by ch. 646 to r/title-28-JUDICIARY-AND-JUDICIAL-PROCEDURE · 102 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Retired federal judges can live wherever they want, with no residency restrictions. Their "official station" is simply the place where they actually live, and this rule also applies to judges recalled to active duty under several listed sections.

Retired federal judges do not have to follow any rule about where they must live. For section 456 of this title, a retired judge's "official station" is treated as the place where the judge actually lives — the home the judge normally lives in. The same rule applies, for section 604(a)(7) of this title, to a judge or magistrate judge who is recalled to serve under section 155, 375, 636, or 797 of this title: their official station is the place where they actually and customarily live.
