Court grants Apple's reject for preliminary injunction against Galaxy Nexus

Megan Lavey-Heaton

To follow up on the preliminary injunction banning sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in the U.S., the same judge also has ordered a ban on Galaxy Nexus sales. As Engadget points out, the dispute centers on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)'s slide-to-unlock mechanism and other issues.

The Galaxy Nexus went on sale in the U.S. on December 15 and is currently Android's flagship device for promoting Ice Cream Sandwich and its successor, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

Apple: Google is no "friend of the court"

www.tuaw.com Yoni Heisler 7 days ago

Earlier this week, Google, along with a host of other companies, sought permission to file an amicus curiae brief to support Samsung's efforts to oppose Apple's own efforts to secure injunctions against a number of accused Samsung devices.Amicus curiae -- which literally means 'friend of the court' --- are briefs filed by third parties whose interests may be affected by the outcome of a particular case. More specifically, it's a way for a party to inform the court that its decision will have an impact that reaches out far beyond the two parties litigating the case in question.That said, Apple'...

Pantech Perception official for Verizon, delivers motion-aware Android on April 25th

www.engadget.com Jon Fingas 25 days ago

Unofficial details of the Pantech Perception have been around for long enough for the phone to feel old, but the truth is that it's only just getting started. The 4.8-inch, mid-tier Android smartphone is at last launching with Verizon on April 25th, and it should cost $100 on contract after subscribers cash in a $50 rebate. It won't trigger much regret among Galaxy S 4 buyers when it's carrying a more GS3-like Super AMOLED 720p screen, 16GB of storage, an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front shooter. That said, Pantech does promise an extra level of software savvy: the company's... Read similar

The brief is currently sealed, but the accompanying summary shows that Nokia thinks judge Lucy Koh was wrong when she denied Apple's request for a permanent injunction of Samsung's productsJudge Koh ruled that, to secure a ban on Samsung's products, Apple must establish a "casual nexus" between its patented feature and the demand for its phones.

Dutch court says Samsung Galaxy tablets don't copy iPad

www.tuaw.com Michael Grothaus 122 days ago

time in the netherlands

Apple hasn't had a lot of success in proving that Samsung's products infringe on its designs, in Europe at least. Last year Apple lost a suit in the United Kingdom accusing Samsung's Galaxy Tab of infringing on its popular iPad design. As a result, the UK judge ruled that Apple had to advertise that Samsung did not copy Apple on its homepage at Apple.com/uk. Now comes news that Apple has lost another case where it alleged Samsung's Galaxy tablet infringed on the iPad's design, this time in the Netherlands, according to AllThingsD: "On Wednesday, a district court in the Hague ruled that Sam...

Apple scores another patent victory over Samsung in the Netherlands

www.engadget.com Terrence O'Brien 171 days ago

It's always the same. The two companies continue to play tit-for-tat with their patents around the world. Apple's so-called rubber-banding patent has been particularly contentious. It played a central role in a German injunction against Motorola and was invalidated by the USPTO. Now the bounce-back scrolling effect has given Cupertino an other feather in its cap in the Netherlands. However, the Dutch court has chosen to be much more measured in its doling out of punishment. There will be no injunction, instead the manufacturer will be given eight weeks to update the offending handsets -- any... Read similar

Samsung: Apple-requested injunction would 'confuse and intimidate' customers

www.tuaw.com John-Michael Bond 14 days ago

patent infringement claims

Samsung has a new legal argument in its ongoing litigation with Apple over the sale of certain Android-based smartphones in the US. While the basis of Apple's case is patent infringement claims, Samsung is now arguing that allowing Apple a permanent injunction would "intimidate and confuse" customers.The drive of Samsung's case, according to an examination by FOSS Patents, is that the injunction "would not stop any ongoing infringement, for Samsung has either discontinued the accused products or designed around any infringing features in ones that it still sells."Apple won a massive US$1.05 bi...

Apple fails to get Galaxy Nexus sales ban reinstated

www.tuaw.com Mike Wehner 106 days ago

After the US Court of Appeals reversed a proposed sales ban on Samsung's Galaxy Nexus this past October, Apple requested that the ban be reconsidered. The request was a long shot and it didn't swing in Cupertino's favor, as Reuters reports that the ban has been shot down by the court yet again. The initial ruling to ban sales of the Galaxy Nexus came just prior to the courtroom battle that ended in a $1.05 billion verdict against Samsung. In October 2012, the Court of Appeals sided with Samsung, stating that the feature at the center of this particular legal skirmish -- a device-wide search ... Read similar

Apple wins invalidation of Samsung 3G patent in Germany

This round of the continuing fisticuffs between Apple and Samsung goes to Apple. FOSS Patents reported yesterday that Germany's Federal Patent Court has invalidated the German part of a Samsung patent for a "turbo encoding/decoding device and method for processing frame data according to QoS." Samsung had declared this patent essential to the UMTS 3G standard and was hoping to obtain injunctions against Apple for this and several other patents. However, the European Commission deemed Apple to be a willing licensee of the standards-essential patent and promptly decreed an antitrust ruling cal... Read similar
