SCO Makes Its Move in Utah: Asks to Waive Claims, Get Final Judgment - Updated, as text

By Pamela Jones et al.

SCO has filed a notice asking the Utah District Court to dismiss its stayed claims and issue a final judgment with respect to both the August 10, 2007 and the July 16th, 2008 orders, so SCO can appeal right now. It points out that Novell was told to file a final judgment, and it hasn't done so.

This is what Novell told the court SCO was going to do next, and it indicated that it would be responding with its own "Oh, no you don't" memorandum in opposition pronto. Novell explained to the court that it believes final judgment is premature, since the arbitration is still pending and was stayed by the bankruptcy, something SUSE asked the court to lift so it could proceed in the arbitration, but which SCO opposed.
