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

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.
