I'd rather see Microsoft win in court on appeal than have Republicans call off the DOJ hyenas now, only to have Democrats unleash them the next time they're at bat. Don't forget, as fickle voters change their minds we see the nation's leaders selected from both sides. I doubt this type of case would be resurrected by any new DOJ people if the current DOJ lot suffered a humiliating defeat. Cheers, PW.

G.W. Bush is elected & kicks out all the Clinton appointee minions from the DOJ, and appoints new Supreme Court Judges I don't know what country you're posting from, but here in the US we have an "independent judiciary". Federal judges receive lifetime appointments. If there is an opening, a president nominates a replacement. If someone is in the job when power changes, that person stays in the job. Also, the states are plaintiffs too. The DoJ can drop out of the suit, but it cannot prevent the states from continuing their suits. -Russ
