Organizational Context
Under articles 34(b) and 36(1) of the Rome Statute, the Chambers are composed of 18 judges, distributed between three divisions: PreTrial, Trial and Appeals. The Presidency decides on the assignment of judges to judicial divisions following consultation with them, assigns situations and cases to the PreTrial and Trial Divisions, and manages the overall budgetary and staffing requirements of the Judiciary as a whole.
PreTrial Division
The PreTrial Division handles all requests regarding either the initiation of an investigation or the preservation of evidence during the investigation and the entire first phase of judicial proceedings, up to the confirmation of the charges on which the case against the person(s) charged proceeds to trial.
The Pre-Trial Division is composed of not less than six judges. The Judges of the President Division elect from amongst their members a President of the Division, who oversees its administration. The judicial functions in the Pre-Trial Division are carried out by Pre-Trial Chambers composed of three judges or by a single judge. In each Pre-Trial Chamber, the judges decide on a presiding judge.
Legal and administrative staff is assigned to a Division and its judges to support their work. The legal staff provides assistance to each Chamber and is led by the Legal Adviser.
Trial Division

The mandate continues until the conclusion of the reparation phase. In conducting the trials, the Chambers are required to ensure, in accordance with article 64 of the Rome Statute, that a trial is fair and expeditious and is conducted with full respect for the rights of the accused and due regard for the protection of victims and witnesses.
