SCO v. Novell went to the jury today. Judge Ted Stewart said, after the jury left to begin to deliberate, that in all his years on the bench, he's never seen such fine lawyering as in this case. Chris Brown reports that the jury says they will not reach a verdict by today:
I've just received word that the jury does not expect to be done by 5pm (it was 4:30 when I got the call, it's 4:45 now).
They will be going home at 5pm and resume on Tuesday morning.
If you recall, one juror is on vacation through Monday, so that's why it's not resuming until Tuesday. What it means is either that there is at least some disagreement on something, or that they just can't get through all the check boxes in time.
Update: From Chris: "I've just received word that the jury has, in fact, left the building."
