Sec. 2633. Procedure and fees

    (a) A filing fee shall be payable to the clerk of the Court of 
International Trade upon the commencement of a civil action in such 
court. The amount of the fee shall be prescribed by the rules of the 
court, but shall be not less than $5 nor more than the filing fee for 
commencing a civil action in a district court of the United States. The 
court may fix all other fees to be charged by the clerk of the court.
    (b) The Court of International Trade shall prescribe rules governing 
the summons, pleadings, and other papers, for their amendment, service, 
and filing, for consolidations, severances, suspensions of cases, and 
for other procedural matters.
    (c) All summons, pleadings, and other papers filed in the Court of 
International Trade shall be served on all parties in accordance with 
rules prescribed by the court. When the United States, its agencies, or 
its officers are adverse parties, service of the summons shall be made 
upon the Attorney General and the head of the Government agency whose 
action is being contested. When injunctive relief is sought, the 
summons, pleadings, and other papers shall also be served upon the named 
officials sought to be enjoined.
