在Cnet上看到了，大概翻译一下。看来李开复真的是举足重轻的人物，看这两巨头争到头破血流就知道了。不管怎样，还是希望他能做些对中国有实质好处的工作。


Microsoft, Google to resume battle for employee
微软 Google继续雇佣之战

Microsoft and Google are heading back to court on Friday in ongoing dispute over Kai-Fu Lee, a former Microsoft executive that quit in July to work for Google.
微软和Google周五将回到法庭，继续进行关于微软前副总裁李开复加盟Google的官司。

Microsoft sued Google for hiring Lee to run its operations in China, alleging his new duties violate the terms of an employment agreement he signed when he joined Microsoft.
微软控告Google雇佣李开复展开在中国的运作，宣称他的新职务违反了他加入微软时所签署的雇佣协议里面的条款。

The companies are scheduled to appear on Friday at a hearing in federal court in San Jose, Calif., where Google wants the case decided. Microsoft wants the case decided in the state of Washington, where the software maker is based and where a judge already has already temporarily banned Lee from performing certain work for Google until he issues a final ruling. That case is scheduled to go to trial in January.
两家公司预定于周五现身于加州San Jose的一个联邦法庭听讼会上。微软希望这个案件能在华盛顿完结，因为华盛顿是微软的基地而且已经临时禁止李开复为Google履行某些工作直至最终判决出来为止。这个案件预定于明年一月作出判决。

Google initially filed its countersuit in California state court, which generally frowns upon noncompete contracts. Microsoft had the case moved to federal court.
Google一开始在加州法庭占有优势，因为加州法庭一般都对未完成的合同案件持不赞同态度。而微软使这个案件转到了联邦法庭。

At Friday's hearing, U.S. District Court Judge Ronald Whyte is scheduled to hear two motions. One is Google's request that the court void Lee's contract and issue a summary judgment without a trial. The other is Microsoft's motion to either dismiss, transfer or stay Google's suit.
在星期五的听讼会上，美国联邦地方法庭法官Ronald Whyte将会审理两个要点。一是Google要求法庭裁定李开复的合同无效，并且发布一个大概判决，而不用进行审判。二是微软对此所作出的解雇、调任或坚持反应。

Microsoft offered to settle the suits with Google after Washington court issued the preliminary injunction. Google has not responded to the offer, which asks the company to limit Lee's duties until the noncompete agreement expires in July.
在华盛顿法庭颁布初步的命令后，微软曾提出解决这个问题的建议，要求Google限制李开复的职务直到未满期的协议7月份期满为止。但是Google没对此作出反应。
