The European judge deciding whether to suspend European Union sanctions against Microsoft Corp. has told the company to provide more evidence to back up its contention that its intellectual property rights would be under threat if it were forced to divulge information on its server systems, a source close to the case said.

The request was made by Bo Vesterdorf, president of the Luxembourg-based European Court of First Instance, the source said, according to a report in the Financial Times.

Microsoft shares fell 53 cents, or 2%, to $26.88 on Nasdaq.
