The June 17 Bankruptcy Hearing Transcript - as text |
|
Here's the transcript from the June 17 bankruptcy hearing on SCO's motion to get another extension of exclusivity, as text. When SCO's attorney, Arthur Spector, arrives at the podium, he tells the court that this "itty bitty SCO case" is unique. "I don't think the Court has seen many cases like this," he says. And indeed, he speaketh truth, yea verily. SCO *is* unique, happily. But that is also the problem. It's harder to spot a problem you've never confronted before. And this judge certainly doesn't seem to realize what he's dealing with. Or if he does, he doesn't care. That may be in part because in bankruptcy court, one gets used to less than noblemen, I suppose. His job is to get them back on their feet, if possible. But I don't honestly think that's all that is going on. But he certainly got an earful at this hearing, this judge, and not only from Novell. The US Trustee also speaks plainly enough that SCO's lawyer protests, calling it a broadside attack on his client. You and I would just call it truth, and in fact the judge deflects the criticism.
