SCO's claims Against Daimler-Chrysler Thrown Out

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the sucks-to-be-them dept.

Zak3056 writes "According to eyewittness reports published on Groklaw, SCO has been all but thrown out of court in their suit against Daimler-Chrysler. In a hearing that lasted 18 minutes with the judge ruling from the bench, all of SCO's claims, save that DCC failed to file their required certification with 30 days, were dismissed."
