649 (see 1990 Amendment note below) was repealed by Pub. L. 103-416, 
Sec. 219(z)(3). See Construction of 1994 Amendment note below.

Attorney General'' for ``the clerk of such court'', ``location of the 
District office of the Service in which the application was filed and 
the title, authority, and location of the official or court 
administering the oath of allegiance'' for ``title, venue, and location 
of the naturalization court'', ``the Attorney General'' for ``the 
court'', and ``of an immigration officer; and the seal of the Department 
of Justice'' for ``of the clerk of the naturalization court; and seal of 
the court''.
