SCO must pay for violating German court order.

A German regional court has declared (Google Translation) that SCO has violated the provisional order (in essence an injunction) against them in Germany. Specifically SCO was prohibited from claiming that Linux contains any illegitimate code from Unix until they have proven it in court. The injunction only prevents the German office/branch of SCO from making such claims. However the court did find that the German branch did in fact violate the provisional order and has fined the company 10,000 Euro’s (about $11,000 US).
