The USADA arbitration hearing - to be held in public at the request of Landis - will be held from May 14th, said Michael Henson, PR manager for Landis.
This was revealed earlier today at a press conference hosted by Henson.
As yet there's no news on the confirmed vene or who the arbitrators are.
The Trust But Verify and Rant Your Head Off blogs have been keeping up to speed with the latest developments.
In a reply to the French anti-doping authority which was planning to call Landis to task, Landis said:
"I fully share the goal of preventing illegal doping. In this case, and in order to avoid any misunderstanding, I agree voluntarily not to participate in any professional or amateur cycling event in France until December 31, 2007, and in particular the Tour de France 2007.”
