SCO v Novell Trial Transcripts - Day 2, Part 1 as text -Opening Arguments, 1st Witness, Frankenberg

By Pamela Jones et al.

I have the corrected transcript for day 2 [PDF] of the SCO v. Novell trial as text. This was the very first actual day of trial, the jury having been chosen and sworn in the day before. So today is Tuesday, March 9, 2010, and we have opening arguments from each of the parties and then SCO begins to present its case. You'll find the rest of the day here [PDF; text] and then here [PDF; text].

For SCO's side, Stuart Singer begins the opening argument, and then Brent Hatch finishes up the last part of it. For Novell, it's Sterling Brennan all the way. Then SCO puts on its first witness on the stand, Robert Frankenberg, formerly CEO at Novell, who is examined by SCO lawyer Stuart Singer of Boies Schiller, then on cross for Novell by Sterling Brennan, then Singer on redirect and Brennan on recross. Here's Groklaw's coverage of that day.
