IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ORACLE AMERICA, INC.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

 GOOGLE INC.,

Defendant. /

No. C 10-03561 WHA

ADJUSTMENTS TO FAIR-USE

INSTRUCTION

The Court intends to amend its already-circulated proposed fair-use instructions (Dkt.

No. 1688) to include (with slight modification for context) the statement of our court of appeals

in Wall Data Inc. v. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Dept., 447 F.3d 769 (9th Cir. 2006), at page

778, first full paragraph, first column, beginning with “as we balance” through “as reasonable.” 

This insert will go in the last paragraph of the instruction. Also, on page 5, line 23, the phrase

“Unless it was a fair use, however,” will be added before “Google” and “however” will be

deleted on the next line, this to avoid an unintended misstatement of law. Please take these

adjustments into account in your upcoming critiques.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 22, 2016. WILLIAM ALSUP
