We have the daily transcripts from the recent SCO v. Novell trial, at last. I haven't read them yet myself, but I wanted to share them immediately as soon as the court made them available. We can read them together. I can't wait to read the closing arguments, personally.
The trial began on March 8, 2010, a Monday, and ran for 15 days.
Here they are, all PDFs, and note that 854 and 855 are for the same opening day, 855 being a corrected transcript; for all the others days, there's more than one part to the transcripts:
- 854: Jury selection and the trial begins. Monday, March 8, 2010. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 855 - corrected transcript. The docket notes: "Docket Text: **RESTRICTED DOCUMENT**Original transcript will not be released. Corrected transcript is NOT restricted.
NOTICE OF FILING OF OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT for dates of March 9, 2010-Jury Trial(Part One) before Judge Ted Stewart, re [567] Notice of Appeal. Court Reporter/Transcriber Patti Walker, CSR, RPR, CP, Telephone number (801)364-5440." [Groklaw coverage.]
- 856 [ part 2] - Opening arguments, day 2, and first witness, Robert Frankenberg. [Groklaw coverage.] Note that one part of this transcript is restricted. The docket entry reads: "Docket Text: NOTICE OF FILING OF OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT for dates of March 9, 2010-Jury Trial(Parts Two and Three) before Judge Ted Stewart, re [567] Notice of Appeal,. Court Reporter/Transcriber Patti Walker, Telephone number (801)364-5440." So one part is apparently not for us.
- 857 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 3, Duff Thompson & Ed Chatlos on the witness stand. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 858 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 4, Jack Messman, Burt Levine, Alok Mohan, Doug Michaels, Jim Wilt [Groklaw coverage.]
- 859 [ part 2; part 3] - Day 5, Ty Mattingly, Bill Broderick [Groklaw coverage.]
- 860 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 6, Mistrial Motion, Kim Madsen, Steve Sabbath, Darl McBride [Groklaw coverage.]
- 861 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 7, McBride cont. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 862 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 8, McBride cont., Gary Pisano, Christine Botosan - [Groklaw coverage.]
- 863 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 9 - Jury hears about Kimball's rulings and Botosan - [Groklaw coverage.]
- 864 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 10, Chris Stone, Maureen O'Gara, John Maciaszek, Andrew Nagle - [Groklaw coverage.]
- 865 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 11, Ryan Tibbits, then SCO rests. Novell begins. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 866 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 12, James Tolonen, Allison Amadia. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 867 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 13, Gregory Jones, Jack Messman (SCO called him as a hostile witness), Michael DeFazio, Tor Braham. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 868 [ part 2 and part 3] - Day 14, Braham cont., David Bradford, Terry Musika. [Groklaw coverage.]
- 869 [ part 2] - Jury instructions, closing argument by Stuart Singer and Brent Hatch for SCO; then Sterling Brennan, part 2, for Novell; then Singer again for brief rebuttal. Case goes to the jury. [Groklaw coverage.]
Update: Another puzzling note on the docket:
07/20/2010 - Deadlines terminated. Transcript deadlines terminated for docket entry 855. Original transcript will remain restricted. A corrected version was added and has been released. (rks) (Entered: 07/20/2010)
I think it means that what we have is the corrected version, but I'm not positive.
Update 2: The mystery about #855 is now solved. They had mistakenly provided a duplicate of #854. Here's 855 now. So I have replaced it in the list of PDFs.
