because there's nothing in evidence to give them anything

IIRC with all the damages reports being stricken and
bits being cut out, there is nothing in evidence to
support profits from the infringement, so they could get
nothing even if they win.

Perhaps they are relying on a judicial order to save
them, and it will probably happen.

IANAL.

Authored by: dio gratia on Sunday, May 13 2012 @ 02:26 PM EDT
"Their only other alternative was to accept a maximum of $150,000 in
statutory damages."

They could settle. They could have made sure there was a there, there before
proceeding to trial, instead of touting damages of billions of dollars with
astro-turfing and whispering in journalists ears and an Oracle co-president
sitting in the court room.
