SCO says judge should order Novell to transfer Unix copyrights

[Michael Lauzon]

Will SCO ever learn, they already lost, but they just refuse to give up!:

"The SCO Group is asking a federal judge to order Novell Inc. to turn
copyrights to the Unix computer operating system over to SCO despite a
jury verdict that said a 1995 sales agreement did not include those
assets.

"Lindon-based SCO told U.S. District Judge Ted Stewart that the jury
did not address the issue that he is to decide when it reached its
verdict March 30 in the long-running legal battle over the ownership
of software that is used by many businesses.

"The parties agreed before trial that Stewart would decide several
questions in the lawsuit filed by SCO in 2003, including one in which
SCO contends that Novell breached the sales agreements by not
transferring copyrights that are necessary for it to conduct its Unix
business.

"In a document filed last week in court in Salt Lake City, SCO
contends the jury did not answer the specific issue before Stewart
that involves a legal principle called "specific performance," under
which a party can ask a court to order another party to fulfill an
aspect of an agreement."
