The Appeals Court in Denver has sent a letter to the Utah District Court, letting them know that the mandate has issued and SCO v. Novell is to go to jury trial:

10/29/2009 - Open Document - [9706085] Mandate issued.

In the entire history of this case, or any SCO case, did you ever see a court move as rapidly as this? They can't seem to move fast enough to help SCO out, it seems. Remember the testimony that someone on the Boies team called a clerk of this court? Speaking as a paralegal, it does sometimes happen that you schmooze a little and make some friends of court clerks, so they'll lend a hand here and there, if they decide they want to.
Or it could be this court is uniquely rapid in handling all its cases.
: )
Bottom line: Novell is running this race now with a ball and chain on its leg, and when they asked to be allowed to run without it, they were denied within 24 hours of their petition being filed. Prontissimo.
