US Court of Appeals appointed serious confrontation between Apple and Samsung on 9 August.
Intellectual property expert Florian Mueller (Florian Mueller) from FOSS Patents said that the planned August trial will be the most important event in the confrontation between Apple and Samsung since the jury last summer. He said that the hearing may be even more important as the ultimate victory of Apple may be in a meaningless last year.
Recall that in last year's jury granted the Apple lawsuit against Samsung on patent infringement. However, US District Judge Lucy Koh (Lucy Koh) has decided that you should not indulge Apple requirements for an injunction on the sale of Samsung's smartphones. Koch said the patent infringement concerns only "a small part of the functions", available on the phones. The judge decided that it would be unfair to ban all products because of "several minimally protected functions."
Apple has not received the money otsuzhennye from Samsung. Although initially Koreans were sent to Cupertino 1.05 billion, 40% (about 450 million dollars) it was annulled in March this year. The Samsung is hoping that a new jury would reduce even further the amount of damage that they are currently obliged to compensate Apple.
