Keep the discussion off topic, or you will be forced to represent SCO in the
coming case.

SCO: But waitaminnit, yer Honor ~pj
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, May 08 2013 @ 01:36 PM EDT
The stay was lifted February 2012, or maybe June 14, 2012.
If I understand the Timeline correctly, SCO requested a
change from Chapter 11 to Chapter 7 bankruptcy on August 16,
2012. Did that perhaps "de-lift" the lifting of the stay, or
create another one?

changes in the law?
Authored by: SpaceLifeForm on Wednesday, May 08 2013 @ 03:16 PM EDT
I can think of no changes in law that would apply here.
Are they going to attempt to confuse a judge?

Whatever, bring it on, it will be interesting.

Just like Prenda, they don't know how to quit.

Twits in Utah

Stupidity flows down hill. It must, it's pooling in Utah!

Did the Delaware count *approve* the stipulation?
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, May 08 2013 @ 05:51 PM EDT
I see where IBM and SCO have stipulated in bankruptcy court that the stay in
Utah could be lifted, but I don't see any evidence that the bankruptcy court
actually acted and lifted the stay.

Am I missing something?

Not bad work
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, May 08 2013 @ 05:53 PM EDT
This seems to be way better than SCO's usual motions, possibly because this time
they actually have a reasonable argument to make. They just make that argument,
without any of the usual tap-dancing. How refreshing (and how unusual).

But... *why* are they doing this? Do they really want to be in court facing
IBM's counterclaims? Are they delusional enough that they think they're going
to come out money ahead in that encounter? Do they still think the FUD has some
value, or that they're going to recover their "good name", or some
other PR-type reason? Or is it just "we have to act like we really
believe, in order to avoid sanctions and/or veil-piercing"?

Is it in order to collect more fees? There's no more juice left in that
orange.

The trustee thinks the claims have merit? Who gave him that idea? Who sold
that idea so hard that the trustee still thinks it's true? Are they still
selling it? If so, who and why? If not, in light of the completely one-sided
defeat that SCO suffered in Novell, why can't the trustee wake up and smell
reality?

What's going on here?

I would laugh myself sick...

... if the Utah court replied, "Yes, we know the stay was lifted. But we
know, and you know, that you have no case and never did, and we refuse to waste
our time on this junk."

They'd say it like judges, of course...

SCO is a bucket of boogers
Authored by: BJ on Wednesday, May 08 2013 @ 08:05 PM EDT

Try to grasp some -- you can't, its glibness escapes your grip.

I think I drew that comparison earlier, quite a few moons ago.
