Sažetak
This work aims to review the Google v. Oracle case and discuss the implications thereof on the legal protection of computer programs in the U.S. and the EU. Firstly, the basics of the Java and Android technologies, the history preceding the case, and the relevant U.S. legal doctrines and regulations are presented in short. Secondly, the case is reviewed by presenting the most important arguments of the parties and the diverging legal interpretation of both facts and law by the U.S. courts involved. Thirdly, the differences between the U.S. and the EU copyright systems are briefly presented to serve as the introduction to the analysis of how the EU courts might adjudicate such a case. Finally, in the conclusion, the current state of copyright protection of computer programs in the U.S. and the EU is analysed.
