A Massachusetts court has rejected Microsoft's request to force rival Novell to hand over European Union correspondence that Microsoft claims it needs to defend itself against antitrust charges in Europe. U.S. District Judge Mark L. Wolf wrote, "It is now evident that granting Microsoft the discovery it requests from Novell would interfere with the foreign tribunal, not assist it." Microsoft is appealing the ruling, and the case will be heard next week by the EU's second-highest court.
