Samsung victorious over Apple in Japanese patent case
"We welcome the court's decision, which confirmed our long-held position that our products do not infringe Apple's intellectual property."-Samsung statement
"This will likely turn the tide in favor of Samsung. Samsung had this win in a country that’s strong at intellectual property. The mood is turning positive for Samsung."-Kim Hyung Sik, Seoul-based analyst, Taurus Investment Securities Co
On December 6th, Judge Lucy Koh will listen to motions from Apple which will seek preliminary injunctions on 8 Samsung devices which the U.S. jury ruled infringed on Apple's patents. In addition, since the jury ruled that Samsung had 'willfully' copied Apple's designs and infringed on its patents, the judge could decide to triple the amount of the jury's award to as much as $3.15 billion. Samsung has said that it will appeal the decision.
