submitted 70 years ago by ch. 1041 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 89 words · no verdicts yet
This section explains how witness fees are paid when the court allows them and no money in the case is available. It also provides for repayment to the marshal.
If the court allows fees to any witness in a prize cause, or fees for taking evidence out of the district in which the court sits, and there is no money subject to its order in the cause, the marshal must pay* the fees. He must be repaid from any money deposited to the order of the court in the cause. Any amount not so repaid to the marshal must be allowed him as witness fees paid by him in cases in which the United States is a party.
