Autozone Activity & SCO Forum Postponed for "New Investor" |

Friends, I don't know what it means but look at this docket entry in the SCO v. Autozone case: 69 -
Filed & Entered: 07/03/2008
Minute Order
Docket Text: MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Robert C. Jones, on 7/3/2008. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the parties shall submit a status report to the Court no later than Monday, July 14, 2008. (no image attached) (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - TKH)
Here's what it could mean: the judge has been reading the funny papers; or SCO or Autozone raised an issue it wants addressed. If I had to bet money, I'd say the first, that the judge was going through his case log and wants to know what's going on. It's been almost a year since SCO filed for bankruptcy, after all. It filed a Notice of Bankruptcy, but there was no order, that I see, shutting down the case. And SCO has announced that SCOForum is being postponed until October 1. According to Heise, the reason is that there is a "new investor" offering to help it out of Chapter 11. I have no idea whether this means the Stephen Norris deal is dead or what it means. I can guess it means SCO is telling us a lot of stories, one after another, and so far none of them pan out.
Here's the IBM order, so you can see what that kind of docket entry looks like: 1081 -
Filed: 09/20/2007
Entered: 09/21/2007
Order to Administratively Close Case
Docket Text: ORDER Administratively Closing this Case. Case may be reopened upon motion of pla(s) or dft(s). Judge Brooke C. Wells no longer assigned to case. Signed by Judge Dale A. Kimball on 9/20/07. (jwt) There's no such order in the AutoZone case, so maybe he noticed and wants to get that done. But I really don't know. We will have to watch that docket now too.

The Autozone judge doesn't need the Bankruptcy Court's
permission to do this?

"Eyeballs for ODF" feedback goes here. PJ says:
"Stay polite at
all times, of course, if you say anything, and you needn't say anything, but do
follow along and please keep us posted on anything you see that sounds
peculiar", and later adds, "Do whatever is possible to avoid engagement
with trolls, here and there."

And that's it? All that discovery - all for nothing? Not even any criminal
sanctions? I seem to remember IBM's counter complaints included Lanham Act
complaints. Does that require a company or just people?[ Reply to This | # ]

I know, we are all desperate for a ruling by the Honorable Judge Kimball, but
will it finally arrive today? He promised a judgment without undue delay, so
perhaps just before summer holiday will be a good time? Let us hope so, as this
might be the first significant step towards lifting all the stays of the various
trials.
So, my money is on a ruling today, but I am not good at prediction. Therefore:
while we wait, we might as well spend time guessing, so please post your wild
guesses here.[ Reply to This | # ]

PJ,
I think that this is the first time that I did not understand what you were
trying to say in your writing. After so many years, that is an impressive
record.
However, the "funny papers" reference confuses me. Are you talking
about the judge in Autozone reading the bankruptcy court filings?[ Reply to This | # ]

... so how much will SCOG claim to be morally obliged to hand over to the Old
Non Investor this time around the block?
