United States v. Stanton
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit · Decided March 10, 1898 · Lacombe, Wallace
87 F. 698; 31 C.C.A. 197; 1898 U.S. App. LEXIS 2024

United States v. Stanton

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We agree with the court below that it is the meaning of section 835 of the Revised Statutes of the United States that the United States attorney is entitled to all of the fees and enioluments of his office, when, in addition to the amount of his necessary expenses, they do not exceed the sum of $6,000 per annum. As it now appears that the defendant in error had not received the amount of the items in controversy from the emoluments of his office, the judgment should be affirmed.
