Goracle case goes to jury

The copyright battle between Oracle and Google is now in the hands of the jury.

Both sides delivered closing arguments Monday and deliberations in the case formally began.

Oracle is accusing Google of stealing code Oracle acquired in the Sun deal, and using it to build the Android mobile platform. Google claims its use of the code is covered by fair use.

Regardless of the outcome in this case, it is widely expected that the verdict will be appealed and the case will drag on into the foreseeable future. ®
