From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The United States District Court for the District of Pennsylvania is an extinct federal district court which was subdivided into the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania in 1815. (Those courts were subsequently subdivided into the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania in 1901.)
It was one of the original 13 courts organized by the Judiciary Act of 1789.
