BRUSSELS--The top judge of the European Union's second-highest court has proposed changing judges in the Microsoft antitrust case, according to a letter sent to all parties in the case.
The move, shared with Reuters on Sunday by some of those who have seen the one-paragraph letter sent Friday, comes after internal court criticism directed at the judge heading the Microsoft case because of a controversial article he wrote.
The letter lays out plans by Court of First Instance President Bo Vesterdorf to transfer the case away from the current judge and panel to a larger panel which Vesterdorf will head.
