Ruling on Motion to Dismiss Tadic Charges
Bosnian Serb Dusko Tadic made a motion to dismiss all charges against him on the grounds that the war crimes tribunal, created by the United Nations, lacks jurisdiction and legitimacy. This is the August 8, 1995 opinion of the tribunal dismissing the motion.

Response to Anonymity Request
This is the defense's June 2, 1995 response to the prosecutor's motion requesting anonymity for certain witnesses and victims in the Dusko Tadic case.
