Prior to 1932, US District Court decisions were published with the US Courts of Appeals decisions (the name of the US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts during that era) in the Federal Reporter (Pub: West). The Federal Reporter 2d Series (F.2d), Volumes 1-60, covers published cases from 1924-1932.You can also retrieve unpublished federal District Court decisions from 1930 via WestLaw, Lexis or Fastcase, if you have access to these online services.
Reporter of DecisionsIf you're asking about the person who acts as Reporter of Decisions for the Supreme Court of the United States, the most recenter Reporter was Frank D. Wagner, who held office from 1987-2010. Wagner was responsible for publishing the decisions of the Court in volumes 480-561 of United States Reports. His successor has not yet been selected (as of September 25, 2010).Supreme Court ReportersIf you're asking about the names of bound editions carrying US Supreme Court opinions, the official, government version is United States Reports.West Publishing produces annotated editions that include opinions, commentary and precedents published as The Supreme Court Reporter and The Federal Practice Digest. The digest includes US Supreme Court decisions as well as published opinions from Court of Appeals Circuit Courts, US District Court, US Court of Federal Claims, bankruptcy courts, Court of Military Appeals, the Courts of Military Review, and other federal courts. LexisNexis publishes a product similar to The Supreme Court Reporter called Supreme Court Reports, Lawyer's Edition.There are also online databases that provide full digital research capabilities, such as WestLaw and Lexis-Nexis. These are paid subscription services.Online reprints of Supreme Court decisions are available through a number of free sources, such as FindLaw, Justia, and LII: Supreme Court Collection (Cornell), among other places.
Wheat (as in 9 Wheat.) refers to Henry Wheaton, third US Supreme Court Reporter of Decisions, who served from 1816-1827.The Reporter of Decisions is responsible for compiling, editing, and publishing the justices' opinions from each case. Today, these decisions are published by the Government Printing Office, at government expense, but from 1790 until 1817, the Reporter of Decisions bore the entire expense of publication and profited from the sale of copies. The original volumes often contained annotations and legal commentary by the Reporter, and were marketed under his name.In 1817, Congress created an official court position for the Reporter of Decisions, and granted an annual salary of $1,000, which helped offset the burden of printing costs. In 1874, the GPO assumed responsibility for production and changed the name to US Reports.Henry Wheaton published 12 volumes of opinions during his tenure. The volume referenced in the question would have been labeled 9 Wheat. The citation for the case mentioned would be Osborne v. Bank of the United States, 9 Wheat. 738 (1824). The "22 US" preface was added later, after the federal government began issuing the opinions in US Reports. In the citation, 22 is the volume number and US is the abbreviation for US Reports. Some older sources show both the Wheaton volume and US Reports volume, as written in the question; however, the modern citation for Osborne omits references to Wheaton (e.g., Osborne v. Bank of the United States, 22 US 738 (1824)).Reporters of Decisions 1790-PresentAlexander J.

Wagner (1989 to date)Wheaton's work was later the subject of the US Supreme Court's first copyright case, Wheaton v. Peters, 33 US 591 (1834). Wheaton's successor, Richard Peters, stripped the notations from Wheaton's published work and repackaged the Supreme Court's opinions for resale (the originals had contained so many notes they were too expensive for many lawyers to afford). Wheaton attempted to claim copyright infringement, but the Supreme Court held that the Reporter had no claim to copyright of the justices' opinions and dismissed his case.
The question is not specific enough to parse out the cited statute from among the huge volumes of federal violations. If possible, please try to be more specific and then re-submit the question.
basic volumes are volumes that are original
The United States Code contains around 60 volumes. The reporter in which the Supreme Court decisions are published is numbered in the 560s. Each state has a similar reporter and code book probably slightly shorter but some longer. And then there are the federal appeals and district court decisions which are law because the Supreme court never changed them. So every scrap of American law is probably over 50000 books
production volumes are the amount of volumes producd in a day
The Federal session laws are published online back to 1789 through LexisNexis Congressional. Some early volumes of the Statutes at Large are available online at http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query.
There are 16 volumes. there is now 26 volume.
