Hope you got some popcorn and a book of German law at the ready because this back and forth between Apple and Samsung just gets better and better. Today, the preliminary injunction, banning sales of Samsung's Galaxy in tab 10.1 EU was partially lifted. Now before you go to the same conclusions as I did, let me say that this suspension has nothing to do with false evidence, discovered yesterday in Apple's complaint. At least it's not the reason for the Düsseldorf Regional Court to lift.
Instead, the representative of the Court stated that the issues of whether the German court has the right to prohibit the company based in South Korea from the sale of its products throughout the European Union, reported the Wall Street Journal. Suspension of the ban is only valid until 25 August appeal hearing in the course of which Samsung will present its argument to reverse the original decision. Unfortunately, things did not change much for German clients-ban continues in Germany. In the rest of Europe will be able to capture the GalTab, until he comes through the Korean parent company, but Samsung Germany group would still be prohibited from selling the device throughout the EU.
According to the FOSS patents patent infringement cases must be handled by each European country, whereas intellectual property rights and trademarks, may be issued by the European Union. These IP rights may then be applied in its entirety to the EU, as in the case of Apple. Apple's original complaint was based on their own rights, intellectual property 003781832 of the design community, which you can find after the break.
The German judicial system are usually more meat aside from the copyright owner than the alleged perpetrator, so Apple already knew that it was a very good chance to win this prohibition. Because his complaint was based on the IP rights granted to EU Agency (not a patent issued by the national patent office), Apple also knew that the ban be achieved outside Germany for the entire EU. In fact, the company only excluded the Netherlands because he was even more extensive case there to submit in mid-September.
Started by Steve jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, Apple has expanded from computers to consumer electronics over the past 30 years, officially change their name from Apple Computer.
