The second order (928 [PDF]) grants Oracle's very late and very untimely request to augment its exhibit list. Clearly Oracle is gaming the system here, but the Court is going to allow both sides some latitude at this early stage of the trial.

The third order (929 [PDF]) denies (without prejudice) the motions in limine of both parties. Google's motion (921 [PDF]) sought to preclude the presentation of all financial evidence regarding Android and Java. Oracle's (922 [PDF]) sought to preclude evidence regarding equitable defenses. As Google had suggested, the Court concurred that Oracle's motion resembled a partial motion for summary judgment that grossly overreached.

Tuesday will start off with Google's opening statement. Then the parties will begin putting on evidence. At this juncture the initial witness lists of the respective parties are:

Oracle

1. Bloch, Joshua
2. Ellison, Larry
3. Kurian, Thomas
4. Lee, Bob
5. Lindholm, Tim
6. Miner, Rich (by video)
7. Page, Larry (live and by video)
8. Reinhold, Mark
9. Screven, Edward
10. Swetland, Brian

Google

1. Josh Bloch
2. Dan Bornstein
3. Craig Gering
4. Vineet Gupta (by video)
5. Bob Lee
6. Hiroshi Lockheimer
7. Hasan Rizvi (by video)
8. Andrew Rubin
9. Eric Schmidt
10. Param Singh (by video)

Given that Oracle has already brought up the Lindholm email in its opening statement, it's not surprising to see Tim Lindholm among the earliest witnesses to be called by Oracle.

Finally, each of the parties has filed a statement of position with respect to the issues they have requested be deemed undisputed at trial. Google (933 [PDF]), which has already received a concurrence from the Court on two of its three requests, says at least they stuck with items which are truly undisputed unlike Oracle which is trying to suggest that items truly in dispute are not, such as Sun requiring field-of-use restrictions on the Apache Harmony License. Oracle, of course, says not so (934 [PDF]), that it is only identifying as undisputed that which Google has already admitted in other pleadings. Of course, we are talking about Oracle's interpretation of what Google "admitted." More fun for Judge Alsup.

Now for Day Two.
