The legal war between Oracle and Google has been rather muted for the last several months, but there could be a major new twist in the case.
Reuters has reported that legal representatives for Microsoft told the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in a briefing yesterday that it would support Oracle.
We reached out to Oracle to confirm, but the Redwood Shores, Calif.-based corporation declined to comment.
Not many more details are available at this time, but it would seemingly line up with Microsoft's other patent-related lawsuits against Motorola Mobility, now a Google subsidiary.
To recall, Oracle originally sued Google in 2010 over copyright infringement related to the use of 37 Java APIs used on the Android mobile operating system.
