Delay in Microsoft antitrust case keeps split remedy in play
The Justice Department won a brief delay in its case seeking to split Microsoft Corp. in two. A schedule set by U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson gives the government until Monday to file papers outlining areas of agreement and Microsoft until Wednesday to respond. The pause comes as talks touch on secondary issues while Jackson nears possible punishment for April findings of anticompetitive practices. Lead DOJ attorney David Boies joined Judge Jackson and Microsoft reps in the conference call. A DOJ spokeswoman said the delay allows comment on Microsoft’s changes to see which can be accepted without undercutting the remedy.
