Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) and government lawyers met briefly with U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson, the first encounter since the judge declared Microsoft a monopoly. The judge requested the meeting to schedule the next phase of the antitrust trial. He was also expected to review any settlement prospects. But both sides left the courthouse after less than 30 minutes, suggesting there was little, if any, substantive discussion. -- John R. Wilke, Wall Street Journal Interactive
