On 25th March the International Court rejected the Albanian Government's "preliminary" objection on the jurisdictional case, and fixed the following time limits for the filing of subsequent written pleadings:

  1. (1) for the counter memorial of the Albanian Government, 15th June, 1948;
  2. (2) for the reply of the United Kingdom Government, 2nd August, 1943;
  3. (3) for the rejoinder of the Albanian Government, 20th September, 1948.
Once these written pleadings have been submitted the Court will make an order for the date of the oral hearings.
