Apple Wins Case Against Samsung in Australia
In what appeared to be a deja vu to what happened in Germany a couple of months ago, it seems that Samsung‘s Galaxy Tab 10.1 will not go on stores in Australia. This after the Federal Court of Australia handed down its decision on the case filed by Apple against Samsung.
Apple took legal action against Samsung in Australia claiming that Samsung has copied Apple’s iPad technology in their Galaxy Tab 10.1 product. Apple claimed that Samsung has infringed their patent on the touchscreen technology in iPad.
“I am satisfied that it is appropriate to grant an interim injunction,” said Justice Annabelle Bennett but said the reasons for their decision is still to be given on Friday. Some analysts say that there is a pattern that is establishing where Apple will take a sweep to the cases it filed against Samsung from different locations around the world.
