SCO Ordered to Produce Evidence

Posted by michael on from the put-up...no,-just-shut-up dept.

harmless_mammal and others wrote in with news from the SCO-IBM hearing in Utah today - apparently the judge has ordered SCO to respond to IBM's discovery requests within 30 days. IBM is asking SCO to tell IBM precisely what code it is alleging is infringing, and to date SCO has failed to show any evidence whatsoever. Some reports from the hearing are at Groklaw, which is already slow under the load. If SCO continues to fail to produce the evidence they've claimed they have, the judge will likely be very displeased, perhaps dismissing the lawsuit entirely.

    "IANAL." God, SHUT UP.

    If you're going to preface all your comments with "I am not a lawyer," then don't offer legal commentary to begin with. You're basically admitting your opinion is invalid and uninformed.

  6. What a binch of hypocrites by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    On the same /. front page, you claim SCO is asking IBM to make SCO's case for SCO because of their discovery claims. Man, /.ers are either stupid or hypocrites

    when GWB got into office, he ordered the DOJ to back down

    Why does everyone keep repeating this urban legend? Please cite some factual evidence that this is what happened.
