SAN FRANCISCO, May 7 (Reuters) – A Northern California jury

on Monday found that Google Inc infringed upon Oracle

Corp’s copyrights on the structure of part of the Java

software programming language, in a high stakes trial over

smartphone technology.

However, the jury failed to decide after days of

deliberation whether Google had the right to fair use of that

copyrighted structure.

The verdict on copyright was read in a San Francisco federal

courtroom.
