- United States District Court for the Canal Zone
-
The United States District Court for the Canal Zone (in case citations, D.C.Z.) is an extinct United States District Court. The District was abolished, effective March 31, 1982, as part of the process of returning the Canal Zone to Panama. Cases then pending in the Canal Zone court were transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana in New Orleans.
