Default A little back from the judge... Apple vs. Sammy

Judge throws out part of Apple patent award against Samsung - Yahoo! Finance

$1.05 billion against Sammy now down to $600 million.

Exactly as I predicted, the fines couldn't stand up.

What about the others? Wait for it... it tends to come out in the wash.

This is good news, but the judge did order a new trail so stay tuned. Apple could still get back the $$$ they lost today or even more.

You can't say "Stay tuned". Apple are purchasing the rights to that phrase and will retroactively sue for usage.

Or there will such a backlash from the previous jury shenanigans, they won't.

Do we know if it was a particular patent that was "laughed out of court"?

Treb my man, the retrial to properly assess damages will likely lower the final amount due to errors Judge Koh didn't personally fix.

Didn't you read back on the article?

Maybe I read it wrong, but the last sentence of the second paragraph in the link I provided above is how I perceived it. My bad...

The OP link only said that the damages were calculated incorrectly.

Only to determine damages due, not a whole new retrial
