There is another issue at work here: conversion -- i.e. theft.
The judge in Utah has ruled that SCO illegally held onto money that 
should have been sent directly to Novell.  It never _was_ an asset of
SCO's so it can't be part of any deal reached by the bankruptcy court.
The only issue left for trial in Utah is the _amount_ due Novell.
IANAL, but Novell seems to have a solid claim to more than $20 million
in cash from SCO.  Without that money, there is not enough left of the
corporation to argue over.
