They are obligated by the terms of their engagement letter to pursue

the current litigation between SCO and International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”), Novell, Inc., Red Hat, Inc., AutoZone, Inc. and DaimlerChrysler, Inc., including all related pending counterclaims and all related counterclaims that may be asserted in the future, all appeals in respect of such litigation and all corporate work, if any, directly related to the foregoing [...] through the end of the current litigation between SCO and IBM, including any appeals".

The letter says that, after the wind-down of the IBM litigation, "the parties shall determine in good faith how to proceed with any remaining SCO Litigation, to the extent necessary."

So it looks like they're on the hook only until the end of the IBM case. (Of course, at this point the IBM case is practically speaking the only one left. The only other case besides IBM that is still alive is the Red Hat case, and that is stayed by the Chapter 11 filing.)
