Judge Orders MS To Give Code To Suing States

A federal judge has ordered Microsoft to give the 9 states still involved with the anti-trust suit against Microsoft the code to Windows XP. District Judge, Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, ordered Microsoft to hand over the code to the 9 states so that all parties can assess claims on equal footing. In a Reuters News article, Judge Kollar-Kotelly is quoted to say:
"It seems to me that if your side has access to it, then the other side, frankly, should have access to it..."
The hearing of the case against Microsoft by the 9 states is set for March 6, 2002.
TMO would like to thank Observer DaiMac for alerting us (join in the discussion).

Microsoft may have gotten off easily in the Bush administration's DOJ case against them, but it looks like the nine holdout states will be a tougher nut to crack. This is a stunning and just move by the courts. Microsoft has had the cards stacked in their favor for some time now, and it is interesting to see the other guy get a break for a change. As always, this requires watching. There will no doubt be a series of appeals from the company as Microsoft seeks to delay this development as long as possible.Warning: include(/usr/local/etc/httpd/sites/macobserver.com/htdocs/forums/extension.inc) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/bbm/macobserver.com/ee2/www/htdocs/comments/comments.php on line 108
