"A U.S. law may be adopted in coming weeks, but the EU has yet to propose its draft.."

Hi,
I don't think so!
Coming(adj)[only before noun]
formal happening soon:
the coming winter

Hi Suresh,
Mortza is right. In this contecxt the word 'coming' replaces the word 'next' in terms of meaning... so 'next coming' would be incorrect.
