Samsung vs. Apple Court Case: Samsung Continues to Struggle
Even though the court has ruled that Samsung infringed on Apple’s patents related to the design of handsets, the South Korean tech giant refused to admit its fault. As it has been announced earlier today, the Supreme Court of the United States will hear the appeal of the company later this year. With this appeal, Samsung plans to persuade the judges that the court ruling was unfair and that the company is not guilty.
Here’s what the company representative say:
A patented design might be the essential feature of a spoon or rug. But the same is not true of smartphones, which contain countless other features that give them remarkable functionality wholly unrelated to their design.
Samsung has already paid Apple $548 million for patent infringements. Appealing to the Supreme Court of the United States, the company hopes to get the money back.
