Law/Patents - Law (general)
Italian term or phrase: collegio perfetto e imperfetto
in Italian legal language, committees/boards may be considered as "collegi perfetti o imperfetti". Here's an explanation: "I collegi si distinguono in perfetti (o reali) e imperfetti (o virtuali). Collegi perfetti sono quelli che possono deliberare solo con la presenza di tutti i membri (il cosiddetto plenum); i collegi di questo tipo (tipicamente collegi di ponderazione, quali i giudici collegiali ed altri collegi giudicanti) hanno solitamente ridotte dimensioni e spesso prevedono, a fianco dei membri effettivi, la presenza di membri supplenti che subentrano ai primi in caso di assenza o impedimento, in modo da assicurare la continuità di funzionamento dell'ufficio."

Does any of our legal experts here know whether there are legal terms for these types of boards in English?

Explanation:
> en banc or in banc: a Patent Attorney relative of mine in New York always uses the latter form of 'in banc', but which term of French art - laughably in the UK, including even Roman Civil-Law Scotland - would suggest judges in or oustide of a bank.

Example sentence(s):
  • USA: En banc is French for "on the bench." The term refers to a special procedure where all judges of a particular court hear a case. When the court believes that the matters are especially complex or important, the en banc procedure will be used.
  • USA: Definition: (French) by the full court. Also spelled in banc and en bank. Some appellate courts which have a large number of judges and a large caseload often divide into divisions or panels for each case.
