Lebeya said that the case will focus on the complaint filed by Advocate Paul Hoffman from the anti-corruption pressure group Accountability Now.
Mkhwebane has had a rough few months, after a few court battles with those who've challenged her recent findings, including the president.
This week she lashed out at her detractors and also implored judges who've ruled against her to play the ball and not the man.
