Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) announced in April the acquisition of Sun Microsystems (NASDAQ: JAVA) for $9.50. Sun Microsystems closed at $9.01. Oracle issued the following statement, attributable to Dan Wall, counsel to Oracle. "We've had a very good dialogue with the Department of Justice and we were almost able to resolve everything before the Second Request deadline.
