Judge Kimball Denies SCO's 2 Motions (Groklaw)

Groklaw has a ruling from Judge Kimball in SCO v. IBM regarding SCO's scheduling motions. SCO loses all the way. "However, there is nothing in the Amended Scheduling Order that precludes IBM from filing motions for summary judgment, and there is nothing in the Scheduling Order that relieves SCO from responding to such motions. Thus, it is puzzling that SCO seeks to 'enforce' the Amended Scheduling Order when there is nothing in that Order to justify SCO's request for a significant delay in filing its responses." This is a minor and expected setback for SCO; the ruling on the first of IBM's summary judgment motions is still pending.

This is not a setback for SCO at all, considering the position they were
in that lead them to file these motions. They've turned a major blunder
into an opportunity for yet another delay of 30 days.

Ah, but the real reason behind this temporary insanity by SCOX could be to give BayStar and other shareholders the chance to sell-off another 10-20-30% of their stock at pre-trial prices.
