A federal judge on Wednesday ordered Microsoft and nine states to appear at a hearing next week to discuss a delay to the next phase of the landmark antitrust trial.
On Dec. 21, Microsoft asked U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly to extend by four months the date for holding a remedy hearing to decide what sanctions would be imposed for the company's antitrust violations.
On Monday, nine states and the District of Columbia filed a rebuttal brief charging that Microsoft had enough time to prepare for the hearing, which is scheduled for early March.
