The Samsung and apple lawsuit is pretty funny. They both are
the leading power houses in the phone world. They both have great products that
everyone wants. If they get into a argument like this on side is going to end
up paying. It seems that Samsung had ripped off apple of a few things “Apple
filed claims against Samsung at the ITC in 2011, claiming that the company's
products infringed several patents. An ITC judge agreed with Apple with regard
to four patents, one of which relates to the basic design of the iPhone as a
handheld rectangle with rounded corners.”
“Since then, Samsung has stopped selling many of those 26
products. But the case still has big ramifications, legal experts say, because
the Federal Circuit could drastically redefine whether—or when—companies should
be able to knock competitors' products off the shelves after findings of
infringement.”
In this case it was stated that 26 of Samsung's products
violated six Apple patents and awarded Apple $1.05 billion in damages.
But in the end the judge did not ban the sale of these products
like apple wanted.
