Section 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.
