Cases at the Court of International Trade are normally decided by one judge alone. That judge can hold a regular or special court session at the same time other judges hold their own sessions. Section 255 lists the exception to this rule.

Except as section 255 of this title provides otherwise, one judge alone exercises the Court of International Trade's judicial power over any action, suit, or proceeding. That judge can preside alone, and can hold a regular or special session of court at the same time other judges are holding their own sessions.
