In a move which may give Samsung Electronics,
a much needed relief, Samsung on Tuesday filed a new lawsuit against Apple in a US
court, contending the iPhone 5 has infringed on Samsung's patents. In a
statement, Samsung said: "we have little choice but to take the steps
necessary to protect our innovations and intellectual property rights."
In another major relief for Samsung on Tuesday, a US court removed a sales ban against Samsung Electronics's Galaxy Tab 10.1 won by Apple Inc in a patent dispute, allowing the South Korean electronics maker to sell the product in the United States.
Injunction had been put in place ahead of a month-long trial that pitted iPhone maker Apple against Samsung in a closely watched legal battle that ended with a resounding victory for Apple on many of its patent violation claims.
However, jury found that Samsung had not violated patents that was the basis for the tablet injunction and Samsung argued the sales ban should be lifted. Will Samsung be able to gain some ground, or will it bite the dust for patents infringement? We shall have to wait and watch.
