.SERVEN NOT BARRED
BY LAW FROM PRACTICE
Opinion Given Regarding Rights Of
Former Civil Service Examiner.

In an opinion which Acting Attorney
General Henry NJ Hoyt has prepared for
the Secretary of the Treasury IN the cas-.
OF A. r. Server. former chief examiner
OF the Civil Service Commission. who
has sought to be enrolled as an attorney
eli gible to practice before the Treasury
Department, IL is held that section 100,
of the Revised Statutes. does not apply
to employees of special bureaus of the
Government outside the nine depart
ments headed by members of the Cabi-
net
The section in question prohibits q
former employee of the Government de-
partments from prosecuting a claim
against the United States within two
years from the date he left such employ
ment Title four of the Revised Statutes
section 1853, names the departments in
order. and this was afterward amended
to include the Agricultural Department
and the Department OF Commerce and
Labor. which we're established after the
act was passed.
Mr.. Hoyt has declared that the section
does not apply to the bureaus of the Gov
eminent not under the control OF the
departments named or those which are
directly responsible 10 the President.
This eliminates the Civil Service Com
mission from the restrictions and pcr-
mits Mr. Server to prosecute the cases
he has in hand.
