Oracle and Google head into retrial over Java in Android

Oracle and Google have been battling it out in the courts since 2012, when Oracle claimed that Google illegally infringed on copyrights with Java in the development of Android.

The next phase will be for a court to hear the case in May since an agreement couldn’t be made between the two companies. A jury will then decide if Google had the right to use those certain parts of Java in Android for free, or if Google owes Oracle money for the privilege.
