"Why SCO has no case" against LinuxCreated by Stuart Yeates (University of Oxford) on January 11, 2006
Normally third party lawyers don't take public positions about court cases, nor do they give interviews about the legal and factual issues involved, but attorney Thomas Carey has given an interview to techtarget.com outlining why the SCO cases against several players in the Linux market has no merit. Unfortunately he seems less optimistic about a quick end to the cases: Hitler fought World War II until the Allies had nearly overrun his bunker. As long as investors are willing to provide the cash, SCO will sue because that is their business model. They will likely go after smaller companies as a means of controlling the cost of litigation.Further analysis and copies of the original court documents are available from groklaw.net.
