It is. Oracle gets a chance to present its case, so does Google. The better the lawyers, the more compelling case they can make, but, in the end, all has to be based on facts, not empty rhetoric, and based on those, the jury will decide what the most appropriate measure to take.
I'm curious - heve you ever been a juror? I've only done it once, but for that trial any correlation between justice and what the jury decided was purely coincidental.
Yes, but in Brazil only crimes against human life (murders and attempts) are decided by juries. What you describe is a good reason for judges to be cautious about what they admit the jury to see.
