contents Recently it has been shown that the third law of black hole mechanics can be violated: an exactly extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole can form in finite time in gravitational collapse of matter with a large charge to mass ratio. However, it has also been proved that this cannot happen if the matter satisfies a ``supersymmetric'' lower bound on its energy in terms of its charge. This paper proves an analogous result for black holes with a negative cosmological constant. The result states that a supersymmetric Kerr-Newman-anti de Sitter black hole cannot form in gravitational collapse of charged matter satisfying the supersymmetric bound. The results for zero or negative cosmological constant are extended to apply to two-sided black holes: it is proved that an initially non-extremal black hole cannot evolve to a supersymmetric black hole in finite time, irrespective of whether or not the initial black hole was formed in gravitational collapse.
