Microsoft gets Reprieve in MS Word Case


    Microsoft gets Reprieve in MS Word Case
    --


    In an expected move, a federal appeals court has given in to Microsoft's request for a stay order on an earlier injunction that would have barred the software giant from selling some versions of MS Word from Oct. 10 onwards. The injunction would have prevented Microsoft from selling Word 2003 and Word 2007 in their current forms after Oct. 10, as ordered by U.S. District Court Judge Leonard Davis on Aug. 11, after the company was found guilty of infringing a patent held by Canadian software developer i4i.

    On Aug. 18, Microsoft filed a motion to stay the injunction while it took the case to appeal.


    Both parties are expected to face-off on Sept. 23 in front of the Court of Appeals, after which the court will come out with a final decision.
