Samsung wants new jury to evaluate whether 14 of its products infringed Apple's patents at all
The Samsung vs. Apple dynasty took another turn today as Samsung claims that as their trial moves forward that they would like a new jury to judge if 14 of their products infringed upon Apple's patents.
Samsung is specifically invoking the 7th amendment in trying to get this new jury. This is apart of a larger strategy on their part to delay the trial as long as possible.Samsung claims "that a new jury can't just determine new damages for the aforementioned 14 products based on the fact that another jury already identified infringements, but that any such trial must also involve a retrial of the question of liability."
Samsung continues to push the bill by asking for a page extension on the 3-page limit to Apple's claims. This is another tactic to extend the trial as long as possible.
All of these tactics and games by Samsung goes to show the truth behind these patent claims. It is rarely about the money but using this as a tactic to get a competitive advantage and delay product restrictions as long as possible.
