Kennedy School of Government in 1971. He was a law clerk to Justice William O. Douglas of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1971 to 1972.[3] Alsup was in private practice in San Francisco, California from 1972 to 1978, and was then an Assistant to the United States Solicitor General in the United States Department of Justice from 1978 to 1980. He returned to his private practice in San Francisco from 1980 to 1998 with Morrison & Foerster, when he briefly served as a special counsel in the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice in 1998. He was again in private practice in San Francisco from 1998 to 1999.[4] Tenure as Federal JudgeOn March 24, 1999, Alsup was nominated by President Bill Clinton to a seat on the United States District Court for the Northern District of California vacated by Thelton Henderson.[4] Alsup was confirmed by the United States Senate on July 30, 1999, and received his commission on August 17, 1999. Notable casesAlsup was the presiding judge over Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc.,[5] where he notably was able to comment on issues relating to coding and programming languages, specifically Java. He learned the Java programming language solely for the purpose of being able to understand the case more clearly.[6] However, the Federal Circuit overturned his rejection of the copyrightability of Java API.[7] Alsup was also the presiding judge in what is believed to be the first trial against the U.S. no-fly policy, which is a list of people who cannot use commercial aircraft in the United States. Regarding the removal of people incorrectly included in the list, he ruled that, "[t]he government's administrative remedies fall short of such relief and do not supply sufficient due process."[8] In March 2017, Judge Alsup made a referral to federal prosecutors after Anthony Levandowski exercised his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination regarding stealing technology from Google's Waymo to found Otto, a self driving startup, then selling it to Uber six months later for $680 million.[9] In May 2017, Judge Alsup ordered Levandowski to refrain from working on Otto's Lidar and required Uber to disclose its discussions on the technology.[10] Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals{{see also|Regents of University of California v. United States Department of Homeland Security}}In September 2017, Judge Alsup was assigned four cases by parties suing to halt President Trump's decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program created by Barack Obama.[11] On December 20, the Supreme Court unanimously issued an opinion urging Judge Alsup to consider arguments by the Trump administration that ending DACA was within executive authority and is not reviewable by federal courts.[12] On January 9, 2018, he granted a temporary injunction halting President Trump's rescission of DACA.[13] Dismissal of Lawsuit Against ExxonMobil{{see also|ExxonMobil climate change controversy}}On July 27, 2018, Judge Alsup dismissed a lawsuit targeting ExxonMobil on the basis that two California cities, San Francisco and Oakland, could not prove the energy company was responsible for climate change in the state.[14][15] Interest in Sierra hiking and historyAlsup has spent lots of time in the Sierra Nevada mountains and published a book telling the story of the search for notable mountaineer Walter A Starr, Jr.[16][17] Awards and recognition2013: Tara L. Riedley Barristers Choice Award, Bar Association of San Francisco 2013: Award of recognition from Lewis and Clark Law School.[18] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cand.uscourts.gov/wha|title=Alsup, William [WHA] - United States District Court, Northern District of California|website=www.cand.uscourts.gov}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.courthousenews.com/2012/05/17/46581.htm|title=Oracle & Google Debate Road Map|date=May 17, 2012|work=Courthouse News|accessdate=June 1, 2012|author=Dotinga, William}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://supremecourthistory.org/pub_journal_samples_05.html|title=Supreme Court Historical Society - Journal of Supreme Court History|website=supremecourthistory.org|access-date=2016-06-22}} 4. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.cand.uscourts.gov/wha|title=Alsup, William [WHA] {{!}} United States District Court, Northern District of California|website=www.cand.uscourts.gov|access-date=2016-06-22}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=https://blogs.wsj.com/law/2016/04/01/google-and-oracle-agree-not-to-research-jurors-online-ahead-of-major-trial/|title=Google and Oracle Agree Not to Research Jurors Online Ahead of Major Trial|last=Gershman|first=Jacob|website=WSJ|access-date=2016-06-22}} 6. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2012/05/google-schmidt-page-damages/ | title=Oracle Goes for Broke in Court Battle With Google | work=Wired | date=May 15, 2012 | accessdate=June 1, 2012 | author=Garling, Caleb}} 7. ^{{cite law| url=http://www.cafc.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/opinions-orders/13-1021.Opinion.5-7-2014.1.PDF | title=Oracle America, Inc. v.
