Oracle sued for copyright infringement, fraud, violations of the computer fraud and abuse act, violations of the Lanham Act, breach of contract, intentional interference with prospective economic relations, and unfair competition.

The court entered stipulated judgments against TERiX in the amount of $57,700,000 and against Maintech in the amount of $14,000,000 on Oracle's claims. TERiX and Maintech agreed not to provide software support that involves the access, use or distribution of any Oracle IP to Oracle's hardware customers, but continue to be able to provide hardware break-fix support to Oracle's Sun customers. Defendants did not take anything on their counterclaims.
