In a case heard by a panel of the Court, the decision must be made by a majority vote of the panel in accordance with the rules of the Court. The decision of the judge or panel hearing the case so made must be the decision of the Court.
(b) A judge or panel must make a determination upon any proceeding before the Court, and any motion in connection with such a proceeding, that is assigned to the judge or panel.
