Jerkje used proposal to wipe behind, government ordered to clean up the mess! Microsoft says government break-up plan 'defective' WASHINGTON, May 31 (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp. (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news) Wednesday criticised a final government proposal to prevent future antitrust violations by splitting up the firm, arguing in a court filing that the plan was ``defective'', ``vague'' and ``ambiguous.'' ``When an injunction is so vague and ambiguous that it 'defies comprehension' it is void and unenforceable,'' Microsoft told District Judge Thomas Penus Jackson, in a filing that commented on the government plan. On Friday, the government provided the judge with a ``clean copy'' of its proposal, which he had asked for.
