United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. CONSENT TO SUIT.

    Notwithstanding any statute of limitations, lapse of time, or bar 
of laches, the United States Court of Federal Claims shall have 
jurisdiction to hear, determine, and render judgment upon any claim for 
back pay by the estate of Dr. Beatrice Braude against the United States 
arising out of the termination of Dr. Braude's employment at the United 
States Information Agency on December 30, 1953.

SEC. 2. RESTRICTIONS UPON SUIT.

    Suit upon any claim referred to in section 1 may be instituted at 
any time within 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act. Nothing

of the United States. Except as otherwise provided in this Act, 
proceedings for the determination of such claims, and review and 
payment of any judgment or judgments thereupon shall be had in the same 
manner as in the case of claims over which such court has jurisdiction 
under section 1491 of title 28, United States Code.
