SCO Backs Slowly Toward the Door

By Pamela Jones et al.

SCO has settled a few things with the U.S. Trustee's office, withdrawing several motions, two "without prejudice". We'll get the details at the hearing on April 2, in courtroom 3, at 2 PM. I hope some of you can attend. And there's also a Notice of Agenda Matters, the proposed schedule for the day. What is so weird is that SCO is asking that the hearing on the things that were not settled, like the mountain of objections to their Disclosure Statement and plan to throw money to the Plan Sponsor, go forward as a status conference. It seems they plan on filing new documents:

Please take further notice that the Debtors intend to file amended pleadings regarding the Pending Matters and intend to discuss the scheduling of such amended pleadings and the substance of the changes to the amended pleadings at the Hearing.

As usual, they want to spring substantive matters on the other side without any opportunity to prepare in advance. OK. SCO's MO. So, what's a status conference?
