The following excerpt is from Government of Guam v. US, 179 F.3d 630 (9th Cir. 1999):
(Codified at 48 U.S.C. 1421k.) As is apparent, 33 is not an operative provision but, instead, is a provision designed to protect against reading implications into the Organic Act. See Garnett v. Renton Sch. Dist. No. 403, 987 F.2d 641, 645 (9th Cir.1993) (so interpreting a similar provision in the Equal Access Act).
