The lawsuit was originally filed by Bosnia-Herzegovina against then Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SRJ) in 1993.
In 2007, The Hague-based International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that genocide took place in Srebrenica in 1995, but that Serbia was not guilty of participation or complicity.
N1 is reporting that once the court checks the technical facts related to deadlines, the request will be sent to Serbia, which will then declare itself on the motion.
There is no deadline for this, while the process usually takes between three and six months. Bosnia-Herzegovina will after that have the right to respond.
The entire process of the ruling's revision - if approved - will last several years.
Also on Thursday, but in Sarajevo, Mladen Ivanic, chairman of the Presidency of Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Serb representative in the tripartite body, said that its Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) member Bakir Izetbegovic walked out of a meeting and in this way blocked the work of the top organ of government.
Ivanic said that Izetbegovic did not wish to vote on the sole item on the agenda of the presidency today - the revision request.
By leaving the session, Izetbegovic wished to show that it was not held - "but that did not happen," said Ivanic.
"The session was held, it was interrupted, and that means that no decision was made on the revision (request)," he told reporters.
Izetbegovic, however, said that there was no reason for the presidency to declare itself today at all - "considering that it made its decision on October 4, 2004."
He added that the Croat member of the body, Dragan Covic, also walked out today - "in order to prevent outvoting from occurring within the presidency."
A meeting of the Peace Implementation Council (PIC) has also been called for Thursday, on the request of the Russian ambassador to Bosnia-Herzegovina.
This is the best proof showing Serbs and their true intentions. They don't even want to know about crimes they committed against others yet pretend to stand for peace. We will never forget, nor forgive.

Who cares if you dont forget or forgive. If Albanians were worth anything the west would have removed the depleted uranium form Kosovo instead of letting Albanians die from high rates of leukemia and other cancers.
If you dont like Serbs why are your Albanians going to Serbia proper for medical treatment? Surely Albania would be more preferable?

Looks like the peoples on the peninsula have very shrot memories and mean to replay the wars of the 90s. But it's stupid to believe that the West will help them as very soon EU-NATO will have a much bigger headache in Ukraine. All other issues will be put on the farest shelves. Especially after the nuclear stations begin to blow up and the gas transit is stopped.
