"The implication that he rendered a decision after hearing all evidence and seeing all the witnesses prior is inaccurate." Judges are charged with determining what testimony gets in the record, and what witnesses testify, based on relevance (among other things). Let me draw you an analogy to baseball: It's the umpire who gets to decide what is a strike and what is a ball. The pitcher doesn't get to decide that. You are assuming that Microsoft determines what all the relevant evidence is and who all the witnesses are. No. It's the judge, like it is in every single trial in the United States. That fact that MSFT may have had some material excluded from the record, or proffered witnesses rejected does not mean they didn't have their day in court. (And, of course, lost.)
