In order to allow time for consideration of our Prelimi-
nary Draft of Amendments by the Bench and Bar, a closing date
of March 10, 1961 was set for the receipt of comments. As
the full time has not yet run, our Committee is not now in a
position to make a final recommendation with respect to these
amendments. 'e submit herewith our present, tentative recom-
mendation, to be followed by a final recommendation on or
about March 10th.
Our Dresent recommendation is that the draft amendments
set out in the January 1961 pamphlet be approved,, (See the
Note below on minor language changes.)
For the information of the Standing Committee, we attach
hereto as Exhibit A a rmemorandum prepared by our Reporter
and sent to members of our Committee under date of February 13,
NOTE. Our Reporter intends to suggest to our Committee
that a minor change be made in the Rule. 54(b) amendment
[change less than to fewer than in line 15 of Rule 54(b)],
and that minor changes, consequential upon the Rule 54(b)
amendment, be ma.de in Rule 62(h) [change the caption of Rule
62(h) from Stay of Judgment Upon Multiple Claims to Stay of
Ju dgm e nder Rule 4(b), and strike the words on some but
not all of the claims presented in the action from the text
of Rule 62(h)]. These chan-es are believed to be noncontro-
versial. if our Committee approves, the changes will be in-
corporated in our finl -dr t.. ion.](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.usfed/adcvru0008&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
