§ 147. Holding special and trial terms. A special term or a trial term must be held by one judge, except that when private property located within the city of New York shall be taken for public use by the city of New York, the compensation to be made therefor shall be ascertained by a special term for condemnation proceedings of the supreme court. At least one special term and two trial terms must be appointed to be held in each year in each county separately organized. Two or more trial terms may be appointed to be held and may be held at the same time in any county. Fulton and Hamilton counties shall be deemed one county for the purposes of this section. A special term of the supreme court may be adjourned to a future day, and to any place within the judicial district, by an entry in the minutes. After the discharge of the jury, a trial and special term may be adjourned in like manner, for the trial of issues by the court. Any such adjourned term may be further adjourned from time to time, as the justice holding the same directs. Special terms may be held at the chambers of the justice or elsewhere in the judicial district, but an action triable by the court without a jury, which was upon the calendar of a term before it was adjourned to the chambers of a justice under this section, may be tried at the term so adjourned to chambers only by consent of both parties.
