SAP seeks gag order for upcoming Oracle trial SAP is seeking a court order to prevent Oracle’s lawyers from making public statements about the companies’ TomorrowNow lawsuit, fearing the talk will influence potential jurors and prevent SAP from getting a fair trial, according to an SAP motion filed on Friday. To back up its request, SAP cited a recent New York Times column that said SAP had committed “the most serious business crime you can commit.” The column also said a former SAP senior executive, Lo Apotheker, “clearly knew” about the theft of Oracle software.
