I am looking for the exact wording of the following law.
29 U.S.C. 1981. I have only found text that refers to that law but
not the actual wording of it.
In addition, if you a lwayer and want to expand on your thoughts of
this particular law that would be very helpful.
I don't believe there is such a section in Title 29.
I wonder if you are thinking of the very famous 42 USC 1981 series of
Civil Rights laws. If so, section 1981 reads as follows:
1981. Equal rights under the law
(a) Statement of equal rights
All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have
the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce
contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to the full and
equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons
and property as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to
like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses, and exactions of
every kind, and to no other.
(b) ?Make and enforce contracts? defined
For purposes of this section, the term ?make and enforce contracts?
includes the making, performance, modification, and termination of
contracts, and the enjoyment of all benefits, privileges, terms, and
conditions of the contractual relationship.
(c) Protection against impairment
The rights protected by this section are protected against impairment
by nongovernmental discrimination and impairment under color of State
law.
If so, I am an attorney and would love to ellaborate a bit. Let me know.
Otherwise, siliconsamurai is correct: there is no 29 USC 1981.
