Hacking Defendants Will Stand Trial In September 2013
The trial of former News International boss Rebekah Brooks and ex-Downing Street communications chief Andy Coulson will take place next September.
The pair and five other ex-News of the World journalists appeared at the Old Bailey, accused of conspiracy to access voicemails, and the date was set.
Prosecutors say the charge could relate to more than 600 victims.
In a separate case, Mrs Brooks, 44, from Churchill in Oxfordshire - along with her husband, Charlie, and five others - are accused of perverting the course of justice and are appearing at the Old Bailey.
The charges relate to an alleged attempt to hide evidence from police investigating phone-hacking claims and illegal payments to public officials by the News of the World and the Sun.
The provisional trial date was set for 9 September next year and all defendants were released on bail.
