Actually, the latter formulation is known as ThePrincipleOfBivalence.  If we're being careful, we won't formulate it this way.  Instead, we'll say the law is: for any proposition P, it is not both the case that P and not-P.

The Law of Noncontradiction is almost universally affirmed by philosophers; there are many who deny ThePrincipleOfBivalence, however.

If we're being careful, we won't formulate it this way, in terms of truth (it might then might be confused with ThePrincipleOfBivalence).  Instead, we'll say the law is: for any proposition P, it is not both the case that P and not-P.  In Aristotle's formulation: "One cannot say of something that it is and that it is not in the same respect and at the same time."
