California Supreme court rejects Oracle's fraud claim against HP, and orders both companies to unseal documents relating to their Itanium dispute
IT giant Hewlett-Packard has won a battle in its ongoing legal war with Oracle over executive appointments and high performance chips.
In September 2010, HP sued software and systems vendor Oracle in for hiring its former CEO Mark Hurd. Oracle later alleged that in the ensuring legal discussions, HP failed to disclose that it planned to hire former SAP CEO Leo Apotheker and ex-Oracle executive Ray Lane.
Oracle said that this put it at an unfair disadvantage during negotiations. However, US Supreme Court judge James Kleinberg rejected this claim yesterday.
