Judge Slams SCO's Lack of Evidence

Posted by Zonk on from the look-before-you-leap dept.

An anonymous reader writes "News.com has reported that the federal judge overseeing the SCO Group's suit against IBM has voiced loud skepticism about SCO's case. "Viewed against the backdrop of SCO's plethora of public statements concerning IBM's and others' infringement of SCO's purported copyrights to the Unix software, it is astonishing that SCO has not offered any competent evidence to create a disputed fact regarding whether IBM has infringed SCO's alleged copyrights through IBM's Linux activities," said U.S. District Judge Dale Kimball." Commentary available on Groklaw as well.

    "What is this word "evidence" you speak of?"

    Judge (in the voice of Inigo Montoya): "You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means."
