50 U.S.C. § 213 — Jurisdiction of confiscation proceedings

submitted 149 years ago by Congress to r/title-50-WAR-AND-NATIONAL-DEFENSE · 44 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This law sets where seized insurrection property gets processed in court. Cases go to the district court with jurisdiction, or the district where the property was seized. Admiralty courts can also handle it in the district where proceedings first began.

This section is a single, undivided rule. It sets where property seized under the confiscation rule described in the preceding section of this title gets condemned — meaning formally forfeited through a court proceeding. Such prizes and captures must be condemned either: in the district court of the United States that has jurisdiction over the amount involved, or in an admiralty proceeding in whatever district the property was seized, or in whatever district it was taken into and where proceedings were first instituted.
