The Google-Oracle trial is over ? Oracle can?t restrict Google from using parts of Java they alleged the latter were wrongly infringing on, and they also can?t enforce a license. Judge Alsup made that perfectly clear. But something interesting was revealed about Oracle?s strategy: they pushed way too hard for a lawsuit that pretty much wasted the court?s time.
After two failed revisions of their trial, Alsup made Oracle adhere to one condition if they wanted to get back into the courtroom: that they pay for Google?s legal fees for that third trial. The damages come in at about $300,000, an amount that seems like pocket change even for Oracle.
Earlier in this trial?s history, Google called Oracle?s claims?frivolous, and they should have taken heed of that in a serious manner. With this move, Alsup made it clear that Oracle is not going to get anywhere with such a weak hand, and that they should think twice before making themselves look like fools in front of the entirety of the tech world.
