S 5465 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A bill to clarify where court may be held for certain district courts in Texas and California.

This bill (S 5465) amends federal court organization codes to clarify specific locations where certain U.S. district courts may hold sessions. It adds "College Station" to the list of locations for Texas district courts (amending 28 U.S.C. § 124(b)(2)) and inserts "El Centro" after "San Diego" for California district courts (amending 28 U.S.C. § 84(d)). The bill makes no substantive policy changes - it only updates procedural court location references. It directly affects federal court operations in those specific Texas and California communities.
