Not so sure about that. They both started with 17 hours. That's 34 total
hours.
The trials is 3 weeks, and goes from 8AM to 1PM. That's 5 hours per day. 5 *
15 = 45 hours. Add in the time that neither side has to use (the time when the
judge stops to ask questions, conference time, etc) and I think the time is for
the whole trial, not just this phase.

Yes. You are correct. After Google finishes presenting
its side, the lawyers will each give closing argument
on the copyright phase. Then the jurors will meet and
come to a verdict.
Then they start the patent phase. The clock starts
fresh. Each side has, I believe, 16 hours, including
the time for opening statement and closing. So it
will be a bit shorter. Same deal. The jury reaches
a verdict on just the patents.
If Google is found liable, then phase 3 starts, the
damages phase, and the jury will decide that. Probably
something, if only because Google admits there was a
mistake and the 10 files or whatever they were are
there. So unless the jury finds that of no value,
they would kind of be likely to give Oracle something
for that. And then there are the patents. If any of
them are found valid and infringed, there will be
damages there and Oracle will then ask for an injunction.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
