Italian word

camera di consiglio

the judge's deliberation room; in-chambers proceedings

Looks like

chamber of counsel

in-chambers proceedings (proceedings not open to the public)

⚠️ The trap

The phrase sounds like 'chamber of counsel' to English speakers, but it specifically refers to the room and process of judicial deliberation, not to any meeting with legal advisers.

To say "in-chambers proceedings (proceedings not open to the public)" in Italian:

camera di consiglio

"camera di consiglio" in English means:

the judge's deliberation room; in-chambers proceedings

Example

"I giudici si sono ritirati in camera di consiglio."

"The judges retired to deliberate."
