The Justice believed that Apple had presented sufficient evidence conforming violation two of its touchscreen- and multitouch-related patents by Samsung. Previously the Korean company had agreed to delay launch of their new tablet in Australia, waiting for the Court’s decision.

Apple reported that they had tried to solve the problem not suing to the Court, but negotiations were not successful.
